1. Delete Desktop Shortcut
2. Remove the custom action for Launch Condition "Install [ProductName] by using the Setup.exe in the root folder."

8. Step to suppress EULA,Registration,Updates:
Create "application.xml.override" file and place in Adobe folder with the following contents.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Configuration>
<Payload>
<Data key="EULA">Suppress</Data>
<Data key="Serial" protected="0">xxx--yyy--zzz </Data>
<Data key="Registration">Suppress</Data>
<Data key="Updates">Suppress</Data>
</Payload>
</Configuration>
try this to silently INSTALL and UNINSTALL. (NOTE: Pretty sure this works with 2020/2022/2023)
To install:
.\PhotoshopElements_2022.exe --silent=1 --lang=en_US (whatever you want)
OR
.\PremiereElements_2022.exe --silent=1 --lang=en_US (whatever you want)
To uninstall
Go to either: HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall OR HKLM:\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
Find your Elements Package and Locate the Uninstall String it should show something like this. (Adobe Photoshop Elements 2022)
UninstallString : "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Desktop Common\HDBox\Uninstaller.exe" --uninstall=1 --sapCode=PSE --productVersion=20.4 --productPlatform=win64 --productAdobeCode={PSE-20.4-64-ADBEADBEADBEADBEADBEADBE} --isNonCCProduct=true --productName="Adobe Photoshop Elements 2022" --mode=4
Instead of using the Uninstaller.exe which doesn't accept certain switches do this: (SWAP out the codexVersion productPlatform & sapCode & deleteUserPreferences) Remember PSE = Photoshop Elements / PRE = Premiere Elements
Photoshop Elements 2022
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Desktop Common\HDBox\Set-up.exe" --silent=1 --uninstall=1 --sapCode=PSE --codexVersion=20.4 --productPlatform=win64 --deleteUserPreferences=true
Premiere Elements 2022
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Desktop Common\HDBox\Set-up.exe" --silent=1 --uninstall=1 --sapCode=PSE --codexVersion=20.4 --productPlatform=win64 --deleteUserPreferences=true
