I rooted my Droid razr recently using the one click method. Now I need to unroot it. I've followed all the instructions everybody has posted about how to do it and whenI go on my PC and hit enter to start the file it to unroot it it comes up with "specified path can not be found" please somebody help! Ive tried all that I can think of.
 
The changes made to the system path fixed that problem for me.
Sections 7,8,9,10 should help if thats it.

  1. Download the latest Android SDK (preferably the zip file not the exe).
  2. Unzip the package to the root of C:\. NOTE: This will output a folder called "android-sdk-windows".
  3. Open up the android-sdk-windows folder and launch the SDK Manager.
  4. When you launch the SDK Manager for the first time it will ask for which packages to install. The only package we are concerned with at this time is "Android SDK Tools, revision 19", "Android SDK Platform-tools, revision 11" & "Google USB Driver package, revision 4". You can reject all the others if you are not interested in them.
  5. Once that's finished installing, you can close the SDK Manager.
  6. Go to the Control Panel, and select the System Properties (Windows XP) or System (Windows Vista/7).
  7. Select the Advanced settings;
    • Windows XP: Click on the Advanced tab.
    • Windows Vista/7: Click on Advanced system settings on the left.
  8. Click on Environment Variables.
  9. Under the "System variable" section, you will look for "Path". Double-click on it.
  10. In the "Variable values" section, add at the very end the location of the tools & package-tools folder, with a semicolon separating these two paths from the rest, e.g. %SystemRoot%;C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools;C:\android-sdk-windows\tools.
  11. The Google USB Driver package only supports select devices out-of-the-box, we will be downloading a modified file that should provide support for all CyanogenMod supported devices:
    1. Download the modified driver inf file: Download
    2. Unzip the file & inside you will see android_winusb.inf. Copy this file to C:\android-sdk-windows\extras\google\usb_driver\ replacing the "stock" android_winusb.inf.
  12. On the device, ensure that USB Debugging in enabled (Settings
 
I don't know if the rest of the instructions will really help, it's just the ADB path part that got mine to work, just fixing that got the root program I used to complete the connecting to the phone, hopefully someone with more knowledge will reply.
 
Moved to All Things Root section so they rooters here can help you identify your problem.

i flashed my phone back to stock to unroot it, or you can run the unroot program and then boot to stock recovery and clear cache partition and they should remove the root icon, then you open terminal emulator (if you downloaded it from market)
type in
su
and see if you have root access
 
I don't have any custom roms on it, it is on stock, and unrooting it is the problem. I can't do it.when I run the unroot program that's when the message comes up and it won't unroot. How did you just flash your phone back to stock andunroot it? Using the program? Because I've tried that and it also comes up with the message about not finding the path
