Guest zlep Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 Hi, I am new to Autoit. Can I use It for automated Software Uninstall? I want to write a Script that uninstalls a specific Apllication via-'login-Script/Autoit' if I login as a special user. Finally I just need to know how to start the uninstallation process via autoit, since the software I want to remove has no 'uninstall.exe' file thank you zlep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest zlep Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 I found another solution Myuninstaller (http://members.lycos.co.uk/nirsoft1/utils/myuninst.html) gave me the exact link to the .exe file and argument I have to call from AutoIt to uninstall the software thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fraudh8er Posted September 26, 2004 Share Posted September 26, 2004 I am nrew to Autolt, HOw do you read in the uninstall string and execute it. I have found the string. Do I just execute each line in the uinstall log file with RunWait. My guess is that this utility reads the UninstallString in the registry... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt @ MPCS Posted September 26, 2004 Share Posted September 26, 2004 The UninstallString is the command that windows Add/Remove Programs dialog executes to uninstall an application. Read the manual on how to use RegRead and as larry suggested, search the forum as this topic has been handled before. *** Matt @ MPCS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
