Uninstall Canon Driver Silently

I was able to install the driver by creating setup.iss file & when i try to create an uninstall.iss using setup.exe -r then it only gives me an option to install the driver again instead of uninstalling. Usually when you run the setup again with the -r swtich it will take you to the uninstall process & creates another setup.iss in windows folder but not in this case it doesn't show an option to uninstall. When i run the following UninstallString it shows an option to either click Yes or No before proceeding. Can someone please tell me what swtches to use to silently uninstall this? Thanks in advance.

I've also tried uninstalling with the ProductCode but it's failing with 1605 which means that the product is not installed. But i can still see all the files & shorcuts also add/remove is there it doesn't do anything.

  • How did you create the uninstall.iss? Can you show us the exact commands?

    You should have used the following for examples:
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\InstallShield Installation Information\{09AAA659-ACF9-47B3-B362-C216693C7A11}\setup.exe" -uninst -removeonly -r -f1"C:\uninstall.iss" -f2"C:\uninstall.log"

    Silent Install:
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\InstallShield Installation Information\{09AAA659-ACF9-47B3-B362-C216693C7A11}\setup.exe" -uninst -removeonly -s -f1"C:\uninstall.iss" -f2"C:\uninstall.log" - dj_xest 11 years ago
