WARNING: These steps should help only if your version is available at audials.com/en/download, as after removing the old version you will have to install a new one from there.
Problems with update installation
On some Windows 10 computers, in some rare situations the installation of free updates of Audials - which are available through the “Update!” button in the software itself - may fail.
If the message "Access to network address AG / Audials was not possible" is listed, please note that some firewall/antivirus program may cause this problem, so disabling them temporary should solve this.
Other reason is that mostly, on some Windows 10 systems, the “Windows system for installing programs” may get corrupted.
This will lead to that the uninstallation of older audials versions - which always is the first automatically executed step in installing a new version - may fail. Subsequently, the installation of the new version cannot be performed.
Luckily, Microsoft provides a tool which solves this Windows problem, and helps to “cleanly uninstall” software.
This page provides a step by step instruction on how to use this Microsoft tool, in order to cleanly uninstall your Audials version, so that then the newer version can be safely installed.
Important: Before following these steps, make sure you still have your Audials license key. It may be necessary to enter it again during the installation.
How to freshly reinstall Audials - step by step
1. Download the tool from Microsoft
Just click this link, and execute the “.cab” file by clicking on it.
The Microsoft wizard to help with installation problems should start.
(more information are available here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-ca/help/17588/windows-fix-problems-that-block-programs-being-installed-or-removed)
2. Confirm to solve problems
Click "Next"
3. Choose “Uninstallation”
Click “Unistalling”
4. Choose Audials
If your Audials is not listed, choose first in list “Not Listed”
5. Choose “Try to uninstall”
Click "Yes, try uninstall”
6. Wait…
(just wait a bit)
7. Finish the uninstallation
The old installation has now been deleted.
8. Reinstall the version freshly
Go to https://audials.com/en/download and download and install your version freshly.

Absence totale de soutien technique. excessivement déçu de Audials. On est laissé à soi même. Le supposé support est banal et stupide car on ne trouve pas la réponse adéquate. C'est à se demander si c.est préférable de se faire rembourser plutôt que d'être ridiculiser
Uninstalled, but not cleanly
Way to get rid of all
Start cmd.exe as administrator and enter following to deactivate hibernate and shutdown windowspowercfg.exe /hibernate offStart Live Linux (ubuntu) and delete files of Audials mounting via sudo in terminal
Open file explorer and delete files. Here a list of Audials files for deletion. Sugested from Mirela Radu
%localappdata%\RapidSolution
%programdata%\RapidSolution
%allusersprofile%\RapidSolution
%localappdata%\Temp
%localappdata%\Audials
%programdata%\Audials
And the advice to clean registry, also sugested from Mirela Radu
You edit the Registry on your own responsibility. To prevent data loss, we recommend that you back up the Registry: open Windows Registry as an administrator > click File in the menu, and then Export >Save file to your desktop. Then delete the registry entries from:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\RapidSolution
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\RapidSolution
I tried everything above listed... Deleted files, Cleaned Registry, uninstalled everything including Vcd drivers... Reinstalled... Same Problem... Keeps asked to apply the same update over and over... Streaming Services 3.3.778.0 over and over...
