For a full uninstallation, all PaperPort components should be removed one after the other. The components are as follows: Kofax Power PDF Create (only in PaperPort Professional), Kofax PDF Viewer Plus, PaperPort Image Printer and Kofax PaperPort 14.
Removing only one or more of the following components: Image Printer, PDF Viewer Plus or PDF Create will cause PaperPort to function incorrectly. For example (and not limited to the following functionalities): PDF Viewer affects FormTyper, PDF Create affects the save and combine to PDF functionality in PaperPort.
To uninstall PaperPort and its key components:
Select Programs and Features.
Select Kofax PaperPort 14.
Click Remove to uninstall the program.
Repeat this for the remaining components.
A computer re-start is needed to complete the removal.
A deactivation step is performed at the start of uninstallation, allowing you to reinstall the program later without reactivation problems. Deactivation and reactivation require web access.
