How to Remove Scansoft Addins

    Unregister and Delete Addins

    • 1). Click on "Start" and then click on "Run." Windows Vista and 7 do not have a "Run" icon, so you will need to click on the "Start Search" field.

    • 2). Type "CMD" into "Search" or "Run," and press the "Enter" key. This will open a "Command Prompt" window.

    • 3). Type "C:\Program Files\ScanSoft" into the command line window. Hit "Enter."

    • 4). Type in your ScanSoft PDF version, such as "PDF Converter Professional 6." Hit "Enter" to navigate to that folder. You can type in ""C:\Program Files\ScanSoft\PDF Converter Professional 6" as one command if you are familiar with your software.

    • 5). Type in the "regsvr32 /u PDFCWordaddin.dll" command and hit "Enter" (without quotes). This will unregister the first Scansoft addin file.

    • 6). Type in "PDF Driver\OfficeAddin" and hit "Enter."

    • 7). Type in the "regsvr32 /u ZnWordaddin.dll" command and hit "Enter."

    • 8). Close out "Command Prompt" by typing in "Exit" and hitting "Enter."

    Remove ScanSoft Office Addin

    • 3). Select "Sun ODF Plugin for Microsoft Office" from the program list.

    • 4). Click on the "Uninstall" button. Confirm you wish to remove the addin by clicking on "Continue."

    • 5). Restart the computer if prompted.
