Silent Un installation for ArcGIS Reader
Dear All,
As I said before, I am new in software scripting. I would like to know something that maybe you can help me.
I have software, ArcGis Reader that their uninstallation should be silently. I can´t get the correct parameters for this ( eg: Using /?, /help) and nothing shows up.
Somebody can give me some tips about uninstallation.
Here you cand find the message that I got.
Thanks for your support

All of the ArcGIS products that I've encountered so far have been ultimately driven by MSIs. Use those for installation/uninstallation, rather than the EXEs. The EXEs are pretty much just ZIP archives so you don't even need to run them to get at the MSIs, just open them in 7Zip/WinZip.
Remember to *always* add verbose logging to your command line, too.

ok, Thanks! but the issue is that when I want to uninstall it ( silently) I got a message... "the setup must update files or services that cannot be updated while the system is running. If you choose to continue, a reboot will be required to complete the setup". I dont want this interaction with the users, thinking that this package will go throught SCCM. :-) I Hope you can help me.
Thanks!. - jurbanob 4 years ago-
I guessing you're not using the MSI, then! In which case, no, I can't help you. If you run the MSI silently, Windows Installer will handle the "open file" scenario automatically. - anonymous_9363 4 years ago
