Uninstaller via Command Line

Post by 83dons »

Hi

I want to be able to completely uninstall this via command line in a batch file. Where is the uninstall exe as I cannot find it on version 2.5 (build 214.2)? Or can you tell me the command line to uninstall please as opposed to manually doing it via add/remove programs?

Thanks

Hi 83dons,

Thanks for the post - uninstaller is located within the software installation folder (normally C:\Program Files\Tracker Software\PDF Viewer).

There is only one exe in that folder:

PSFXCview.exe

What is the uninstaller called? It doesnt seem to be there for the free version.

Also can a new install be setup using an .ini file for all answers to message boxes and run in verysilent mode? LOADINF/SAVEINF

Not that I'm aware of, but it's not something that I've ever tried or, to my knowledge, that we've been asked. From the description, I think you're best off using an MSI installer with a transform. However, if you'd like to stick with the EXE, please see here:

Given that it's an old build being used, and for the Viewer (now discontinued and replaced by the Editor), I can't really say why this would be. Regarding the uninstallation, you should find these helpful:
