Symptom

  • Installing Analysis Office BIP Add-on after installing design studio BIP Add-on seems to remove the latter's install entries. 
  • After the 1st BIP Add-on (Design studio) install, it showed up in the control panel installed programs which gave the option to uninstall.
  • After the 2nd Add_on (Analysis Office ) install, that showed up in the control panel installed program which gave the option to uninstall.
  • However, the Design studio BIP add-on disappeared from the control panel > Programs and Features which means we will not have the option to uninstall it as shown below.
