Help please! Can anyone tell me the 38 digit product code for Macromedia Fireworks MX 2004? It seems that I can't delete this programme from my computer without the 38 digit product code. Thanks in advance.

By the sound of it, you have a 64-bit OS like Catalina or higher that won't support legacy uninstallers.  Ideally, you should have removed old software from your machine BEFORE upgrading to 64-bit OS.  Manually removing old program files is probably your only option now.

My operating system is Windows 10.

Windows > System Settings > Add/Remove Programs.

What happens when you click on FW > Unistall button?

 

Assuming your computer User profile has admin level permissions, it should unistall.

Serial numbers are unique identifiers. Only you know what that is.  Nobody here can tell you.

 

I think it's strange that you're being prompted for a software serial number to UNINSTALL it.

Which operating system do you have?

Can you show us a screenshot?

Hi Nancy,

 

Thanks for replying. I don't need a serial number, I need a product code. Serial numbers are only 16 digits, I need a 38 digit product code, which is a different thing. That's what the Pro Installer is asking for.

Unfortunately, MX 2004 is a dead product.  I don't know what the product code was back then.  Macromedia has been out of business since 2006.
