Software Deployment

Hi Zeno

Unfortunately I can't tell you how you get this uninstallation done silently.
However, have you heard of AutoIt before?
I know this is a little quick and dirty but we use it sometimes to get around issues like this.
With AutoIt you can create a very simple self executing script with confirms your dialog boxes as you want it to.
Get more infos here: http://www.autoitscript.com/
Or even send me a screen shot of the dialog box and I create and send you such a script.

Roland

or a winbatch (if you have one sitting somewhere =)
use a code like :
______________________________
IntControl (1002,0,0,0,0)

Run("<your unsinstall command line")

if WinWaitExist("<the name of the dialog box that pops out", 300)==@True then
SendKey("{ENTER}")
end if

I have tried running the uninstall with part of the string
C:\WINDOWS\IsUninst.exe -f"C:\Program Files\Intel\Shiva VPN Client\Uninst.isu"

But it can't get rid of the snetcfg.dll, any suggestions on how I can unisntall that.

Hi Zeno:

have u tried making the answer file for unstall??
i think u need to create an answer file .iss as it seems to be an installshield installation.

Akhlaque,

Any suggestion on how to create an .iss since I've never created one before.....

Cheers......

What I've managed to do is run this...

C:\WINDOWS\IsUninst.exe -f"C:\Program Files\Intel\Shiva VPN Client\Uninst.isu"

which uninstalls the program, but it won't uninstall/remove the "C:\Program Files\Intel\Shiva VPN Client\snetcfg.dll" dll file which leaves two LAN Adapters remaining on the computer....

This software is used of remote VPN access so it somehow installs 2 VPN network adapters that's done by the snetcfg.dll fike

Hi Zeno:

The command line for creating an .iss file for uninstall is as follows:

X:\-----------\setup.exe -r -f1 X:\------\unstall.iss

keep ur setup.exe and unstall.iss in same directory.
once the .iss file is created then run the unstall with silent command line options.
