# How to perform a clean install when updating Invivo7 using the Invivo Asset Cleaner

## If experiencing unexpected behavior with Invivo, use the following utility to wipe licensing and system files.

This utility can be used for the following scenarios:

- Upgrading from a previous version of Invivo to Invivo 7.2.7
- Would like to perform a clean install of Invivo7
- Experiencing unexpected behavior with licensing, related to Invivo7
- Experiencing unexpected behavior related to Invivo preferences

 

**Notes**:

- This utility is for PC only.
- This will not remove your Implant Library. That must be done manually if desired (C:\\ProgramData\\Anatomage\\ImplantLibrary)
-  This will remove licensing for both Invivo 7 and earlier versions.
