AnyConnect 2.4 SBL Silent Uninstall + No Reboot

Hello,
Does anyone happen to know if there is a good way to silently uninstall the Start Before Login component for AnyConnect 2.4? If I use my standard uninstall command the uninstall wizard will prompt me to reboot my machine which breaks my installation script for AnyConnect 3.1.
Here is the VBScript command I normally use in this situation (Where IDNumber is the appID for SBL2.4:
intRC = WshShell.Run("msiexec.exe /x " & IDNumber & " /qb", 1, TRUE)
The above line works great for SBL 3.1. Actually, I believe SBL 3.1 gets uninstalled for me when I uninstall the 3.1 client. Either way I havent had issues on the new software.
I also checked the Admin Guide for 2.4 but did not find any help on silent uninstalls:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/vpn_client/anyconnect/anyconnect24/administration/guide/anyconnectadmin24.html
Any ideas?

I happened to stumble upon an answer that seems to be working for me.
Here is my new uninstall command:
intRC = WshShell.Run("msiexec.exe /x " & IDNumber & " /qb /norestart", 1, TRUE)
Using this new argument (/norestart) I am now able to quickly swap back and forth between 2.4 and 3.1 AnyConnect clients. No rebooting required, atleast it is not forced during my installation script. This makes my evaluation and performance testing/comparison much easier.
If anyone can forsee a problem using this technique then please let me know. Otherwise I will proceed with what I have discovered.

Internet Explorer 9 Silent Uninstall

Hello,
I created a custom IE9 install by using the Microsoft IEAK9. The source used for the custom install and destination OS is the same, Windows 7 Pro x86. My install works perfectly with the correct customizations. However, when I run the msiexec /x
{GUID} uninstall key from the command line, I am prompted to locate the IE9 Msi installer. When I point it to the IEAK Output MSI file (which it already had found) it complains about not being a valid IE installer package. When I look at the details of the
IE9-Setup-Full.msi I see a different product GUID than listed in the registry uninstall key, however if I attempt to use that key I get the "product is not installed" error. This is the command line used to install the package: MSIEXEC /I "\\serverpath\9.0\IEAK9OUTPUT\FLAT\Win32_WIN7\ENU\IE9-Setup-Full.msi"
/qn /norestart
I can run the uninstall from the control panel without any problems, but I like to have a silent uninstall script in case I need to perform a reinstall if I run into any issues during general deployment. Has anyone else run into this problem and know a way
to fix it?
Thank you

Hi,
You can try to use this methods to silent uninstall IE9:
(1)
Log in as Administrator
(2)
Close all IE browser windows
(3)
Open a "Command" windows by Clickin Start > Run > Cmd
(4)
Open "Notepad"
Copy and paste the text below into Notepad. This will convert
the html below into plain text:
FORFILES /P %WINDIR%\servicing\Packages /M Microsoft-Windows-InternetExplorer-*9.*.mum /c "cmd /c echo Uninstalling package @fname && start /w pkgmgr /up:@fname /norestart"
(5)
Next copy the text from Notepad and paste into the Command window at the disk prompt and then press the enter key.
(6)
After the commands run and the disk prompt returns, paste the text again and rerun the commands.
(7)
Next reboot to finalize / update the configuration with IE8.
Furthermore, I suggest to contact IE Forum for further help:

Silent Uninstall Adobe Acrobat X windows 7

Hello,
I've tried the sollution provided in http://forums.adobe.com/message/3794451#3794451 and it doesn't work correctly.
Sometimes the unistall of Acrobat is correctly, sometimes it's only gone after a reboot, sometimes it has to be done twice.
I use the next command:
msiexec /x {AC76BA86-1040-7D70-7760-000000000005} UPGRADINGPRODUCTCODE=1 REBOOT=REALLYSUPPRESS /qn
The uninstall has to be silent and no reboot.
Who can help me?
With regards and thanx,
Johan.

Good day Johan,
Try this string:
msiexec /x {AC76BA86-1040-7D70-7760-000000000005} REBOOT=ReallySuppress /qn
You shouldn't need the UPGRADINGPRODUCTCODE=1 property. It's really not recommended to have any other applications open when you run this command line.
Kind regards,

Silent uninstall issue with JRE Version 1.7.0.60

we use the following install/uninstall string for quite a long time without any problems:
Install:
msiexec /i "%~dp0x86\jre1.7.0_55.msi" PROG=0 INSTALLDIR="%ProgramFiles%\Java\jre1.7.0_55" /qn REBOOT=ReallySuppress /l* Installx86.log TRANSFORMS=jre1031.mst METHOD=joff SKIPLICENSE=1 JU=0 AU=0 REMOVEEXISTING=1 JAVAUPDATE=0 AUTOUPDATECHECK=0 SYSTRAY=0 ENDDIALOG=0
Uninstall:
MsiExec.exe /X {26A24AE4-039D-4CA4-87B4-2F83217055FF} /qn REBOOT=ReallySuppress /l* UnInstall.log
The uninstall script even runs silent when Java runs in a browser while uninstall is executed since version 1.7.0.55.
With the new JRE Version 1.7.0_60 a window appears during silent uninstall saying that i have to close the browser to proceed. I think it has to be a bug because we use the MSI-Installer with "/qn"-property and there should never be any window but an errorcode on the command line.
It happens with x86 and (if a x64 Internet Explorer Tab is open) with x64 silent uninstall.
Can someone confirm this behavior and report this bug? Or can someone tell me where I could report this bug myself?

I'd say you can report the bug on http://bugreport.java.com/ under "Submit a Bug".

Silently Uninstalling Adobe Reader 9

Hi all,
I am looking to silently uninstall Adobe Reader 9 due to the same exact problems posted in the below link:
http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b5c482
*It's the C++ Visual Runtime Error due to the appdata folder redirection.
Does anyone have a way to uninstall with either the Adobe Customization Wizard 9 (which I used to roll it out) or do I need to work with msiexec and it's parameters? I will be uninstalling from all Windows XP-based machines if that helps.
Thanks,

Hi Masakonishimoto,
You can try using tAcrobat Cleaner tool to remove all traces of previous version of reader:

Lync 2013 Basic Client Silent Uninstall

When attempting a silent uninstall of Lync2013, I am getting the message "Are you sure you want to remove Microsoft Lync Basic 2013 from your computer?
We've noticed you have other Office products that will remain installed after you uninstall this product. We recommend you Repair these products from the Programs and features item in your Control Panel once you're done uninstalling."
If we select 'yes' to continue the uninstall, it completes successfully, but displays another prompt upon completion "Microsoft Lync Basic 2013 has been successfully uninstalled" and requires the user to click 'Close.'
The environment we wish to uninstall Lync 2013 from has other Office 2010 products installed, and the do not seem to be affected by allowing this uninstallation to run.
I am using a config.xml file <Display Level="none" CompletionNotice="no" SuppressModal="yes" NoCancel="yes" AcceptEula="yes" />
This config.xml works great for a silent installation, but how can I disable the 2 prompts during an uninstallation?

Hello
TCUSYSADM,
For silent removal of Lync Basic 2013 I'm using a batch file with the following commandline:
"C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE15\Office Setup Controller\setup.exe" /uninstall LYNCENTRY /dll OSETUP.DLL /config c:\temp\config_uninstall_Lync_Basic.xml
Where c:\temp\config_uninstall_Lync_Basic.xml looks like this:
<Configuration Product="LYNCENTRY">
<Display Level="None" AcceptEULA="TRUE" />
<Setting Id="SETUP_REBOOT" Value="NEVER" />
</Configuration>
Start the batch file with the Run as Administartor option. Did not see any prompts.
Before this I tried to start the xml file from an UNC path, but that didn't work. So I copied the xml file to a local folder.

Silent Uninstall Premiere Elements 10

Did somebody get managed a silent uninstall of Premiere Elements 10?
As far as I understood I have to deactive the product first before I'll do an uninstall.
Is there a smooth way to automatically deactivate the software?
In enterprise environment (SCCM deploy) Iam not able to do something manually...
The silent installation is pretty simple if you follow the instructions in this article:
http://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-elements/kb/silent-install-instructions-premiere-elements- 4.html
I searched a lot but I cant find something like that.
Chat- and telephone-support guided me in this forum.
Thanks in advance...

Back at the main page http://forums.adobe.com/community/premiere there is a link to the PPro SDK... but I have never seen such for PreElements
I don't work for Adobe, but my GUESS is that PreElements is much more aimed at the home user market, so it is really made for the individual user, not big companies with "central, enterprise" controls

Silent Uninstall of v1.3.1_05 through 1.3.1_15

I have been looking around for several Hours now trying to figure out how I can perform a silent Uninstall of Java versions 1.3.1_05 through 1.3.1_15.
I am trying to create an automated script that will uninstall every single version of Java on a computer to prepare it for 1.5.0_04. I have an automated process for every version but those listed above. They seem to be different from every other versions and for some reason every time I attempt to make a .iss Answer file using the record feature all I get in the file is.
[{D2BFDD8E-D276-11D6-88AF-0050DA21757E}-DlgOrder]

which does not work. Am I doing something wrong? any help would be greatly appreciated.

Don't think there is a fix. I had to use a js file to send keystrokes.
Launch the %IS GUID PATH%setup.exe -uninst then this script file.
// ==============================================================
// void SendMyKeys(sWindowTitle, sKey, iTries, [bMultiple])
// ==============================================================
// "window_title", "", number or tries,
// SendMyKeys(sWindowTitle, sKey, iTries, bMultiple);
var oShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell");
WScript.Sleep(6000);
SendMyKeys("Java Runtime Environment","y",10,false);
WScript.Sleep(6000);
SendMyKeys("Java Runtime Environment","~",10,false);
function SendMyKeys(sWindowTitle, sKey, iTries, bMultiple) {
i = 0;
if (!bMultiple) {
while (!oShell.AppActivate(sWindowTitle) && i < iTries) {
WScript.Sleep(500);
i++;
oShell.SendKeys(sKey);
} else {
while (i < iTries) {
WScript.Sleep(500);
if (oShell.AppActivate(sWindowTitle)) {
oShell.SendKeys(sKey);
i++;
return;

Silent uninstall J2SE v 1.4.1_01

How can I silently uninstall J2SE v 1.4.1_01??
I have tried several things, but there is always this popup if I realy want to uninstall....
Does anybody hav an idea how to do so ?

You would have to create an installshield answer file (.iss).
First check your registry what the uninstall string looks like using regedit.exe, for example mine is in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{EFCE5837-FC21-11D6-9D24-00010240CE95}
and looks like this:
"RunDll32 C:\PROGRA~1\COMMON~1\INSTAL~1\engine\6\INTEL3~1\Ctor.dll,LaunchSetup "C:\Program Files\InstallShield Installation Information\{EFCE5837-FC21-11D6-9D24-00010240CE95}\setup.exe" Anytext"
if you take the part
"C:\Program Files\InstallShield Installation Information\{EFCE5837-FC21-11D6-9D24-00010240CE95}\setup.exe" and execute that one with the parameter -r and answer all the questions the setup.exe will create a setup.iss text answer file in your windows (winnt) folder.
Save that file in a seperate location.
Now if you want to uninstall on a different machine which has the same version of java installed you will need to execute this commandline:
"C:\Program Files\InstallShield Installation Information\{EFCE5837-FC21-11D6-9D24-00010240CE95}\setup.exe" -s -SMS -f1"c:\temp\setup.iss"
-f2c:\temp\uninstall.txt. Don't forget the "" if you use spaces because there are spaces in the command line path.
-s is for silent
-SMS is to be sure the uninstaller does not start using a new different process task (for batch files etc.)
-f1path\filename for the iss answer file you've created
-f2path\filename for a log file
This only works for installshield version 6/7, older versions sometimes require different methods.

Silent Uninstall for older version of Java 2 RE.

Is it possible to do a silent uninstall for the older version of Java 2 RE, specifically, RE 1.3.1_11? I know that we can for the newer versions.

A silent uninstall of a JRE isn't supported until
1.4.2.Thanks for your reply. Was this because InstallShield was not the supported installer?

Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 silent uninstall

Hello,
I was wondering if there are any silent uninstall string for Adobe Premiere Pro CS6?
In the registry, the standard uninstall string is
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE\PDApp\core\PDApp.exe" --appletID="DWA_UI" --appletVersion="2.0" --mode="Uninstall" --mediaSignature="{7176B973-6011-43C1-AEBC-2D73FE7C6982}"
I tried a few common switches such as --silent --mode="silent" --quiet , etc.
Also, I tried running msiexec /X{7176B973-6011-43C1-AEBC-2D73FE7C6982} but receive an installer error mentioning this command is only usable for installed products.
I have no issues when the application is installed with a package from AAMEE, as there is an extra MSI entry in the registry, but can't seem to find a solution for set-up based installation.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Silent Uninstall the whole Photoshop CS 5 Suite??

Hello
I have with the Adobe Application Manager Enterprise Edition (http://www.adobe.com/devnet/creativesuite/enterprisedeployment.html) a install package generated. This package includes Photoshop CS 5.0 Suite with all components (Adobe Bridge CS5, Adobe Device Central CS5, Adobe Extension Manager CS5).
I make a silent installation with the Photoshop CS5 64bit.msi in my package folder. No problem.
After that, I try to make a silent uninstall with the Photoshop CS5 64bit.msi, but it only uninstall the core application Photoshop CS5. All other components like Adobe Bridge CS5 are still installed.
Is there a way to uninstall the complete CS5 Suite with all components?
Thanks in advance
D. Hug

Problem solved:
The uninstall works only correct if the productcode is used.
Wrong:
msiexec.exe /x "\\server\share\Photoshop.msi" /quiet /l c:\temp\log.log
Correct:
msiexec.exe /x {6AAD9E27-92C1-481E-BC24-3B98C48DE364} /quiet

Adobe CS2 Silent Uninstall

I'm trying to remove CS2 before I begin deploying CS3. I'm trying to automate as much as possible. I've got CS3 tested and ready to deploy, but I need to remove CS2 from the machines. Does anyone have a silent uninstall script?
Matt Hilton
[email protected]

Do you have a really good reason for removing CS2? The two versions will coexist without problems, and it may be worthwhile to keep the old one around for legacy work. And if this is an upgrade installation, I don't think you'll have much luck with a silent install if the installer doesn't see the previous version on the system.
