Uninstalling MSI using Powershell HELP
I'm trying to uninstall snagit 10(if it's installed on the machine) using powershell by using the script below but
it prompts a window asking if I want to keep or remove user data during uninstallation. In order to suppress this in msiexec.
I can use msiexec /x snagit10.smi tsc_data_store-1 qn and it works. how do I do that using powershell using uninstall()
$Result = Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Product | Where-Object { $_.Name -match "Snagit 10.0.2" }
if ($result.name -eq “Snagit 10.0.2”){
$result.uninstall()
}
else {
write-host "Snagit 10 is not installed"
}
