How to uninstall TADP and install AndroidWorks?

[Distul]

I started my project on 4.8 so I assume TADP is installed. I’ve heard good things about AndroidWorks and plan on installing that through the NVidia website. However, I do not see any uninstall options for TADP what-so-ever.

Can’t find it on Epics website, NVidia’s, or Google in general. Can you just install over?

You can find the uninstall for TADP in the folder that has all the other Android SDK located inside of it. Just look for the uninstall.exe and run that. Then when TADP is removed install Android Works using the installer that is in the Engine / Extras folder of UE4.

But the UE4 package of AndroidWorks is missing API 23 correct? (Android SDK and API 23 - Mobile - Epic Developer Community Forums)

In my case, after installing AndroidWorks the builds failed, then I had to run android.bat and unistall API-23, then it works fine.

Hi Distul,

You do not need API 23. If you want to have it installed for other purposes you can still do so but make sure you follow the instructions to set the SDK API Level to android-19, android-21, or android-22 instead of “latest” which would pick it.

Thanks, I read the thread I linked again and now realize that API 23 breaks things, not fix. I’m all set, thanks again.

Uninstall old TADP

For reference, if you need to uninstall an old TADP installation that has no “uninstall.exe” program you can proceed as follows:

1. Delete the directory “NVPACK” (default: “C:\NVPACK”)
2. Delete the directory “NVIDIA\TADP” (default: “C:\NVIDIA\TADP”)
3. Open the “Environment Variables” screen (on Win8: right click on the Win logo -> “System” -> “Advanced System Settings” -> “Environment Variables”) and - for both the “user variables” and “system variables” sections - remove all entries pointing to the above “NVPACK” directory. Pay attention to the “Path” variables: you must modify them and not delete them, removing only the items pointing to the “NVPACK” directory.
4. Reboot - as usual
