Uninstall switches for uninstall.exe

There was an error rendering this rich post.

I need to silently uninstall TeamViewer on allot of devices.

It would seem that none of the usual switches for programs are not working.

Below are examples of the switches i have tried.

"C:\Program Files (x86)\TeamViewer\uninstall.exe" /?

"C:\Program Files (x86)\TeamViewer\uninstall.exe" /i

"C:\Program Files (x86)\TeamViewer\uninstall.exe" /qn

"C:\Program Files (x86)\TeamViewer\uninstall.exe" /s

"C:\Program Files (x86)\TeamViewer\uninstall.exe" /silent

"C:\Program Files (x86)\TeamViewer\uninstall.exe" /quiet

Every switch triggers the program to popup and requires user intervention.

Has anyone managed to successfully silently uninstall TeamViewer?

figured it out, just needs a capital /S on the end and works fine.

Not sure if you use the msi, but we do and there is no uninstall.exe in the TeamViewer installation directory.

We usually push the following command and use the msi to uninstall:

Start-Process msiexec.exe -Wait -ArgumentList '/x "TeamViewer_Full.msi" /quiet'

Thank you for your question and welcome to our Community! ✨

The uninstall.exe does not support command line parameters.

Does this information help?

Have a great day!
