I recently tried updating my local installation of version 8.1.10 by downloading the latest version of Ignition and running the .exe as an administrator, but when I do I briefly see the ignition logo and then nothing happens. I’ve watched my task manager while doing this and don’t notice a change in any of the active processes. Thinking that there may have been something wrong with my installation, I tried fully uninstalling the software first, but have been unsuccessful in doing so. I’ve tried uninstalling via: - Settings \> Apps & Features \> Ignition \> Uninstall - Control Panel \> Uninstall a program \> Ignition \> Uninstall - Navigating to Install Directory\Inductive Automation\Ignition and running Uninstall.exe as an administrator Has anyone run into a similar issue and found a resolution? ---

I have the same problem and follow the same options with no luck.
