Uninstalling Visioneer Acuity™:
Visioneer Acuity is automatically installed when you install the scanner driver using the installation disc. You can also
download the Visioneer Acuity module from the support pages for your scanner at www.xeroxscanners.com.
Visioneer Acuity is a utility with advanced image processing options to instantly improve the visual clarity of
anything you scan.
1. In the list of installed programs select Visioneer Acuity Assets.
2. Click Yes when asked to confirm you want to remove the software.
Depending on the method of installation, and your scanner model, there may be multiple entries for Visioneer
Acuity in the installed programs list. The additional entries in this list are the image processing libraries needed to
support various scanner models. These additional items will be called "Visioneer Acuity Assets" followed by a version
number. In the scenario described here, when you want to uninstall Visioneer Acuity make sure you select and
uninstall Visioneer Acuity. If you uninstall one of the entries labeled as an "asset" you will still need to uninstall the
main Visioneer Acuity utility.
