select the service pack to remove it.
Note:
1.
Uninstalling the service
pack in a side-by-side environment where AutoCAD Map 3D 2015 and other AutoCAD
products are installed on the same machine may cause licensing errors for the
applications on start-up. Should this occur, follow the instruction http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/ps/dl/item?siteID=123112&id=22241522&linkID=9240617
to rectify the problem. If the solution does not work on your machine for some
reason, pls reinstall the service pack to make the product workable and contact
our product support.
2.
If you install the
service pack by a DVD, you will need the DVD for uninstalling the service pack
because it needs to find the acadmap.msi during the uninstallation.
