    hey everyone,
    been working on trying to remove a program that was installed locally to the C:\program files drive.

    so basically i want to remove a program on XP machines, i've tried batch/vbs files but none will work locally, any ideas??

    not great on scripting so excuse the ignorance!! :)

    byw...it doesnt have an msi file its an .exe file

    Try running the exe you want to remove in a command prompt with /? and see if it has a silent uninstall option?

    eg program.exe /? then return

    Grand so no silent uninstall

    Is there any uninst.exe in the folder?

    ok, got it working locally on the pc with the below, but my question is, i used the regedit key to find the location, would this be the same in all pc's on the domain or just that pc...?


    msiexec /x "{A91E3887-5185-4091-AF33-B0048444055}" /m /qb /norestart


    to answer your question there's no uninstall file
