  The "c:\Program Files\ANSYS Inc\v241\Uninstall.exe" command launches the "2024 R1.05 Product Uninstallation" window, but it is empty (no options to select products) and after clicking "Next" it ends with the message "Installation complete" (!?). How to uninstall ANSYS correctly in this case?

  Hey,
  Please ensure that you are running the uninstall utility as an administrative user and that all applications are closed before running the uninstall.
  Please refer to this documentation Chapter 9: Uninstalling the Software
  Thanks,

  Hello Andrei,
  
  Can you please go to 'c:\Program Files\ANSYS Inc\v241' then open a command prompt, use the command: Uninstall.exe -silent
  Once done, give it some time so that it can uninstall the application.
  Example:
  
  Note: This will uninstall all 2024 R1 applications under 'c:\Program Files\ANSYS Inc\v241'.
  To uninstall selective applications, you can use product flags.

  I hope this helps.
