Hi guys,

if I start an uninstallation with msiexe /x {myGUID}, the user is asked by the uninstallation, if he really wants to uninstall that product.
Is there a way to supress that Message without disabeling the whole UI of the uninstallation ?!
It is really just that single message, that I want to be supress.

Thank you

Stefan Krueger

I'm not sure. Have you tried /qb ?

Hi,

I can use the /QN to suppress the uninstallation but how do I suppress the UI from asking whether the user want to restart the system or not? Is there a way to silently force the restart?

Bad idea... I would be very upset if my computer (especially one of my servers) was rebooted without asking.  Always let your user decide if it's okay to shut down their system. :)

the ability to suppress messages comes from using the /q{option} switch on the same command line.  you might try using the /qb or /qr options.

the /qb limits to the basic user interface
the /qr uses the reduced user interface

i don't know the specific details about what the differences are between the two but i tried the /qr and it removed the message confirming removal.  what other dialogues were removed you will have to check....
