what is the command we need to use to uninstall .exe files ?
waithidden "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\uninstall.exe"
i used this in the action script but it is not working
//uninstall Chrome
waithidden “C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\39.0.2171.71\Installer\setup.exe” --uninstall --multi-install --chrome --system-level --force-uninstall
A more generic form would be something similar to the following …
waithidden {value "UninstallString" of key whose (Value "DisplayName" of it as string as lowercase = "google chrome") of Keys "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall" of Registry}
This will execute the command in the Uninstall value of the Google Chrome key in the Windows Uninstall key of the Registry.
Different programs require slightly different methods depending on how they were installed. (MSI, EXE, etc).
The command required for an uninstall.exe depends on the particular application you are trying to uninstall.
This is not a BigFix issue as much as it is an uninstall issue. You have to be able to get the application to uninstall non-interactively (silently) from the command prompt. Once you have that, then use it with bigfix.
