Do a full uninstall. There is probably some sort of registry thing necessary too. Not 100% sure. The problem is that the FTA server is still residing on the machine. It needs an "administrator" login/password to store/encrypt the database to keep someone else from making alterations. This is not Windows security...it is inherent in FTA itself. That being said, if it was me, I'd just wipe the hard drive and start over anyways...too much work straightening out any potential problems that someone else left behind.

If you have an Administrator account for Windows, that user is automatically also made an Administrator for FactoryTalk.

Run the FactoryTalk Directory Reconfiguration Wizard (Start -> Programs -> Rockwell Software -> FactoryTalk Tools -> FactoryTalk Directory Configuration Wizard).

Use your Windows Administrator username and password, and this utility should allow you to log on to FactoryTalk and reconfigure the FT Local Directory.

While you can remove the Windows-linked Administrator user from FactoryTalk for greater security, 90% of installations I've seen left it in place.

Rockwell Automation Technical Support can also help you delete and reset the FactoryTalk directory configuration even without a FactoryTalk Administrator username and password, but you will lose access to all the projects that are on the machine.

If you are looking to save activation keys and the like on the machine, take a look at the Magical Jellybean Keyfinder. I'm not sure 100% sure if it finds Adobe keys, but it's mainstream enough that I bet it will.

Hope That Helps,
