Running a Silent Uninstallation

Run the SilentUninstall_Win.bat script from a command prompt.

Prerequisites
  1. Shut down SAP Mobile WorkSpace.
  2. Prevent backups and virus scans from interfering with the uninstallation. You can either exclude the SAP Mobile SDK installation directory from backups and virus scans, or temporarily disable them.
  3. Run the uninstallation script as an administrator on Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2.
Task
  1. On the host where you want to run a silent uninstallation, confirm that the SMP_HOME\Uninstaller directory contains the correct version of the SilentUninstall_Win.txt configuration file that you modified for a particular uninstallation type. (SMP_HOME represents the SAP Mobile SDK installation directory, down to the MobileSDKXXX folder.)
  2. From a command prompt on the installation target host, navigate to the directory to which you moved the SilentUninstall_Win.bat file and launch the silent uninstallation script:
    SilentUninstall_Win.bat
  3. Check for errors in SMP_HOME\InstallLogs\SDKUninstall.log, where SMP_HOME represents the SAP Mobile SDK installation directory, down to the MobileSDKXXX folder.
  4. Delete any folders and files remaining in the SAP Mobile SDK installation directory, if the uninstaller could not remove them.
  5. Restart the system to delete folders and files remaining in the SAP Mobile SDK installation directory.
  6. Repeat these steps on the target systems for each uninstallation you are automating.
