Remove Programs - IF statemant?

[wklw2005]

I need to remove some software from a few machines. I was going to use the uninstall string key in the registry but I am having issues and the strange thing is the uninstall string in different on other machines. Since I know the software is installed on all machines I thought I could work backwards. Execute the exe and write the script to just remove the software, reg keys, and directories.

I was hoping someone could show me a way to add an IF statement. If the app is not there for some reason, I would like the script to skip and continue with the process. All together I have 10 apps to remove.

Thanks for all the past support and the furture support!

I believe what you need is FileExists, also if it was me i would put each program into a function just to make it easier but maybe someone knows different example:

func prog1()
If FileExists("ServenamepwxploreSetup.exe]") Then
<runs code>
Else
prog2()
endif
endfunc

Func prog2
<see example above>
endfunc

something like this? I tried this but it did not work.

func prog1()
If FileExists ('C:\BentleyDownloads\pwclt081107443en') Then
RunWait("C:\BentleyDownloads\pwclt081107443en")
WinWaitActive("ProjectWise Explorer V8i (SELECTseries 2)","Welcome to the Setup Wizard for ProjectWise Explorer V8i (SELECTseries 2)")
Sleep (6000)
Send("{ENTER}")
WinWaitActive("ProjectWise Explorer V8i (SELECTseries 2) - Setup Wizard","")
send("{down}")
send("{down}")
Send("{ENTER}")
WinWaitActive("ProjectWise Explorer V8i (SELECTseries 2) - Setup Wizard","You have chosen to remove the program.")
Send("{ENTER}")
WinWaitActive("ProjectWise Explorer V8i (SELECTseries 2) - Setup Wizard","Setup Wizard Completed")
Send("{ENTER}")

Else
endif
endfunc

Close yes, you just need to add prog2() between "else" and "endif" then do program 2 in prog2 and follow suite. Im not sure if this is the best way but im sure someone will say when they check the thread im still learning myself.

It also has uninstall switches i belive have a look here

http://communities.bentley.com/products/projectwise/content_management/w/wiki/5497.aspx

specifically this bit

• Un-install of existing ProjectWise modules can be first accomplished by using the following example:

  msiexec /x <full path>pwxplore.msi /qn

  Where /x = uninstall, and /qn = quiet, with no user input
