Error message when installing Enterprise Gateway - Personal
Hi Anonymous,
The above error message could occur when some items of previous data management gateway are not uninstalled completely. Please perform the following steps to clean out the previous gateway.
1. Verify that if data management gateway exists in Control Panel>Programs>Programs and Features. If it exists, uninstall it.
2. Delete upgrade code from Registry, please ensure you back up the registry before you make any changes to it. You can find the upgrade code by using log file mentioned in the above screenshot and Process Monitor, for more details, please review this similar blog.
3. Delete Data Management Gateway folder in C:\Program Files.
After you completely remove previous data management gateway, install personal gateway again and check if it is successful.
Thanks,
Lydia Zhang

I did this exact procedure following the tips of this page:
Https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/failure-installing-the-power-bi-personal-gateway/
I removed everything I found on power bi, gateway or even the regedit files indicated in the log file, but the error while installing the personal gateway still persists, is there any other procedure I can do?
