Uninstall TightVNC 1.2.9 Silently

I need some help figuring this out. I found something that said to use the "unins0000.exe /verysilent", but I still get a popup that asks if I want to uninstall the product, so it's not truly silent and there's no help file on it.

Yes. But it pops up a message that says, "Are you sure you want to remove..." Which is something I can't automate to about 100+ pcs.

You can try this at the top of your script (Or as the script)
pskill.exe -accepteula -t winvnc
rmdir "%programfiles%\TightVNC" /s /q
reg delete HKLM\Software\ORL /f
reg delete HKU\.DEFAULT\Software\ORL /f
reg delete HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\winvnc /f


I used PSKILL to stop the process, but is the same for net stop winvnc Stop the service, remove the files, remove the reg keys.

Will that remove it out of the control panel as well? That was our problem is that after running winvnc.exe -remove, it would remove VNC, but it wouldn't remove it out of Control Panel Add/Remove Programs.

Sorry, as it is that won't do it, But if you add the line
reg delete HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\tightvnc /f
At the bottom of my code snippit then it should remove it.

Edit: you may need to find the name of your key as I did the above post from memory on my win7 machine. The location is right, but it might be called something other than tightvnc
