Switches - Installing and uninstaling in silent mode

Postby pstefano » 02 Jan 2013 11:20

Hello
I am looking for switches for installation in silent mode that will remove shortcut on desktop and looking for switcher for unactive updates and policy.
I created vb script and delete manually but just wonder if there is available (made some research but nothing found)?
There is a bug with uninstallation - uninstall.exe do not delete application from control panel/programs and features.

Silent Install and Uninstall seem to be the same...

INSTALL
vlc-2.0.0-win32.exe /S /V/qn

Uninstall
Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\uninstall.exe /S /V/qn

note: make sure your /S and /V are capital letters and not /s and /v other wise EXE will ignore them and install as if you double clicked on them.

note 2: running the uninstall will seem almost too fast, but it removes the ARP entries and everything. Only thing left is c:\program files\VideoLAN's empty dir
