Performing a Silent Uninstallation

Make sure you have the correct version of the modified SilentUninstall_Win.txt file in the correct location on the host where you want to perform a silent uninstall, then run the SilentUninstall_Win.bat file from the command prompt.

  1. On temporary or test servers, for each type of uninstallation that you are automating, perform a trial run of these instructions using your modified SilentUninstall_Win.txt files.
    Verify that each modified SilentUninstall_Win.txt file is producing the desired uninstallation outcome before proceeding with silent uninstallations on the real target hosts.
  2. Make sure that the <UnwiredPlatformHome>\Uninstallers\UnwiredPlatform directory on the host where you want to perform a silent uninstall contains the correct version of the SilentUninstall_Win.txt file that you have modified for a particular uninstallation type.
  3. From the command prompt on that server, navigate to the <UnwiredPlatformHome>\Uninstallers\UnwiredPlatform directory and enter:
    SilentUninstall_Win.bat
  4. Check for errors in <UnwiredPlatformHome>\InstallLogs\UPUninstall.log.
  5. Repeat these steps on different servers for each different type of uninstallation you are automating.
