Hi,

Can I check how to rollback Adobe Reader when I have install successful on the client computers?

You will need to figure out the silent uninstall command and create a task to run this command.

Can I check what is the uninstall command?

For Microsoft, there is a rollback wizard.For other applications, what is the rollback?

Each application can be different. Here is a similar thread that might help:

Maybe try looking in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall?

Some applications have the Uninstall String populated which looks something like:

MsiExec.exe /I{AC76BA86-7AD7-1033-7B44-A93000000001} (pulled from Adobe Reader 9.3)

I think typically that string isn’t enough. I mean it will pop up the uninstaller, but you want to be doing it silently, so I think you’ll want to be throwing a /quiet flag in there. And I think the flag for uninstalling applications is /X or /uninstall.

The command I used to uninstall my Adobe Reader 9.3 on a VM was:

MsiExec.exe /X{AC76BA86-7AD7-1033-7B44-A93000000001} /QN

Try giving that a go!
