After a few uninstalls and screaming fits ( LOL ) i fired up the service manager which i always have open but this time i figured it would go smooth so left it closed ... everything was shutdown but the website was still running... i shut that down and ran the config wizard again and it completed with the error message " Access to the path 'C:\Program Files (x86)\SolarWinds\Orion\CpuMemory\SolarWinds.DeviceStudio.CpuMemory.Strings.dll' is…"
Not sure if that was the reason but that was the only thing I did and it completed with no issues .. I would assume that would shut off by default during the install\upgrade.
