How to uninstall arcanist? - windows

I am using Windows 7 Professional and I would like to uninstall Arcanist. However, I can't find the uninstall file and I did not find the Phabricator page helpful.

Arcanist is a set of PHP files checked out from a git repository. Simply delete them from where you installed them.

How do you upgrade your git installation using the windows command prompt?

I recently installed railsinstaller on my computer, but have noticed that the installation for git that came with the application is old. I wanted to install it through the git installer, but it never showed me where I would like for the location of git to be at. My other solution is to upgrade it through the command prompt without using the git installer. How do I do this? Which commands would I have to use in the command prompt terminal?
Installing software from the command prompt isn't an easy task on Windows. First, you will need to find out what technology was used to create the installation package. Then you need to download a (UI based) tool which can modify the installation package to stop asking questions and just do what you want. It's certainly possible ... if you can spend a couple of hours or days to find out how.
Now the reason why the git installer isn't asking is probably because it detects an existing install and wants to upgrade it - since the "new" place must be the old place, no question is asked. To "fix" this, you can try to deinstall Git (Control Panel -> Installed Software -> Remove). When you run the installer again, it should give you more options.
If you just want to update the command line tools, you can also try to unpack the installer or install on a second computer. That should give you the git.exe plus all the DLLs and scripts which you can then copy manually. But Git on Windows also install a MINGW environment with a shell and to update that, you probably have to run the installer so it can make the necessary changes to the registry.

Where is the src.zip for JDK8u40?

I installed the JDK8u40, but only find the javafx-src.zip.
Where can I find the source code for JDK? The src.zip?
Below is what I get after installation:
And btw, I didn't see the installation wizard! This is quite strange.
ADD 1
Today I tried several Java installation packages. All are downloaded from Oracle official site.
jdk-6u45-windows-i586.exe
jdk-7u75-windows-i586.exe
jdk-8u20-windows-i586.exe
jdk-8u25-windows-i586.exe
jdk-8u31-windows-i586.exe
jdk-8u40-windows-i586.exe
Both 6u45 and 7u75 installed well on my box. I can see the install wizard. And the src.zip is installed.
But 8u25 ~ 8u40 all installed silently. And no src.zip file is installed because I have no chance to select it in the wizard.
I am not sure if this is my fault or someone at Oracle made a mistake.
As #SubOptimal commented, the /s option indicates a silent install. I am wondering if there's an option to force the GUI install wizard to open.
I am using Windows 7 Enterprise x64 Build 7601 SP1
Make sure the Source code is not disabled when downloading.
Then as you can see on the picture, selecting "Source Code" will tell you exactly where it is located.
Notice that I've downloaded the 32 bits version to make sure to reproduce the same use case as you.
Edit
As per your new edits and comments, it seems what you want to know now is why you don't see the installation wizards. I'm pretty sure this is due to old-set registry key.
Run the following command
reg query hklm\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Products /f "java" /s | find "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE"
Now, navigate to each of the returned path browsing with regedit and delete their entire parent (the big hexa number).
Re-try the installation and I'm pretty sure you will see the wizard.
As for the sources, Oracle documentation specify how to download them in silent mode.
jdk.exe /s ADDLOCAL="SourceFeature"
This is the way I got the src folder from jdk-8u172-windows-x64.exe file without installing.
Step1: Download jdk-8u172-windows-x64.exe file (Java SE Development Kit 8u172) from oracle site
Step2: Extract it and navigate to the path:
\jdk-8u172-windows-x64.rsrc\1033\JAVA_CAB9
Step3: Right click on file named "110" and extract it.
You will get the src.zip file.
It took me little while to figure this out. I hope it will help others.
Enjoy debugging Good Code!
I don't know why/where the src.zip is, but as an alternative, if all you want is the source and somehow the proposed method doesn't work for you, you could always pull directly from the JDK8u40 source tree.
You will need Mercurial instead of Git. This link talks about the hg clone command
Quoting from the OpenJDK Java.net site
The corresponding master forest jdk8u can be cloned using this command: hg clone http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u;cd jdk8u;sh get_source.sh .
In addition, the source code for the last release, 8u40, is available by cloning the 8u40 master forest : http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u40. The final build of that release was tagged as jdk8u40-b25.
There are differences between OpenJDK and Oracle's, though subtle
download JDK 8 from following link
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/jdk-8-readme-2095712.html
src.zip comes in-built with it
if you JDK installer silently skips installing the source. just open the control panel > programs an features and find Java. Right click on it and select change and then select the
source (option) ;)
Download the JDK
Run the Installer, but stop right away
Extract src.zip from C:\Users\<your_username>\AppData\LocalLow\Oracle\ss180121.cab
You can extract .zip from .cab with tool like 7Zip

Compatibility Mode error when installing Visual Studio SDK (vssdk)

Whenever I try to install the Visual Studio SDK I get the following error:
Windows Program Compatibility mode is on. Turn it off and then try Setup again.
I have checked and Compatibility mode is not turned on. From what I've read, renaming the installer to vssdk_full.exe should help. That hasn't had any impact.
I got the installer from Microsoft's website.
What do I need to do to get this to install?
Are you installing on Windows 10? If so, then I have the same problem and it seems as though the current SDK setup is checking the Windows version and 10 isn't currently supported. See https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/77c61be0-1303-4040-a587-62843d321159/visual-studio-2013-sdk?forum=WinPreview2014General for more info
I have managed to get it to install on windows 10, download the sdk, it will download vssdk_full.exe, run this with /layout path which will extract the actual setup file.
Then set compatibility on the new file to win 8 and it will install just fine.
You might not need to do the/layout thing but that is what I did.

I had the same problem. I downloaded .iso file with install package form the internet. Then I mounted it using PowerISO and tried to start it from virtual CD drive. It ended up in the same message as above.
I looked it up and thought that in Properties of .exe install file, it's enough to uncheck some boxes compability section. But nothing was checked.
Soon afterwards I unzipped the package to a temporary directory with PowerISO and installed Visual from there. Worked without problems.
I had this problem, I renamed the instalation file to "vssdk_full.exe" and it installed without problems.

Issues Installing Foundation 5?

So I'm trying to make the switch from Bootstrap to Foundation , and I'm attempting to follow the instructions on this page (as I'm trying to install Foundation with Sass), but the instructions on the site are rather unclear to me - I've installed Git, Ruby and NodeJS but every time I get to the step
foundation new MY_PROJECT
I keep getting the error "Can't find Git, you can install it from http://git-scm.com/downloads except I've already installed it (and reinstalled it, twice actually) and I have no idea what to do to fix it. Perhaps someone could lay out the instructions from start to finish in more concrete terms so that I can understand?
Strangely enough, I reinstalled Git and found that you have to adjust Git's PATH option so that it runs Git from the Command Prompt (essentially, pick the second option on the "Adjusting your PATH environment" screen when installing Git).
Not entirely sure why I didn't realize that before, but it fixed the problem for me!
It is probably some kind of path issue.
You could also run Git Bash that was installed when you installed Git and then execute the foundation new MY_PROJECT command from there. It worked for me :)

How to install plugin for MobaXterm?

I need a terminal that will support svn on windows and I found that MobaXterm is one of them. However going to their plugin installation page which says:
To install these plugins, just download them and put them in the same directory than the MobaXterm executable.
So I downloaded it and put it in the file
C:\Program Files (x86)\Mobatek\MobaXterm Personal Edition however I still get the error message
Sorry: Svn is not included in this version of MobaXterm.
You can check online if you find a Svn plugin for MobaXterm
by ctrl+clicking here: http://mobaxterm.mobatek.net .
If you need a custom version of MobaXterm that includes Svn,
do not hesitate to ask us for a quotation: mailto:contact#mobatek.net .
Does anyone have experience with this software or recommended a terminal that can support svn in windows?
You need to go into the C:\Program Files (x86)\Mobatek\MobaXterm Personal Edition or whichever edition you have and place the plugin there. Restart MobaXterm and it should work.
I normally collect all the plugins which I require from http://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/plugins.html
Once the .mxt3 files are getting downloaded, I moved them to the installed folder where the MobaXterm_.exe is there.
After restarting MobaXterm, this will work like a champ.
Hope if this solves your issue faster.
Start MobaXterm terminal.
Type MobApt or apt-get. This will open MobApt package manager.
Once in the package manager, you have a variety of tools/commands that you can install by simply selecting and pressing Install/Update.
i know the question is old. but you should put the plugin into your home.
if you check the setting you see this is the home directory
%CurrentDrive%:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\MobaXterm\home
witch is :
C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\MobaXterm\home -- or whatever drive that u installed windows
i just installed the python plugin and it works fine
In Mobaxterm simply type : apt-get install subversion
Usable just right after installation. No need to restart.
Same for git.
Change the name of the .mxt3 file (that you downloaded) to .zip
Extract the files, get the .exe files you want from the bin folder
from the files you just extracted, and add them to the slash/bin
folder of the Mobaxterm (where there are more .exe files)
Restart
In order to finish your plugin installation, you need to restart MobaXterm. After restarting, type "svn" in the terminal and it should work.
Try run the command:
#unalias svn
When I saw $PATH and looked into its directories, there was no git.exe.
I downloaded git.mxt3 and put in program files (86) folder and restarted mobaterm.
After restart I can see a file named git.exe in my /bin folder. I am using Win7 (64 bit) and mobaXterm personal Edition v7.1 installed using windows installer (not portable )
MobaXterm already has a 'Packages' button where you can search for plugins and download them. You don't need to go to github and other places to find the necessary files. Just using the built-in search feature under the 'Packages' option at the top of MobaXterm.
