Uninstall by WMI

Hi,

I need to build an small application to uninstall a app remotely from
the computers in my network. How I can do this through WMI. If I use
SELECT "app_name" FROM Win32_Product I can uninstall only the products
installed by MSI. How I can uninstal the other products ?

Thank you

Also, MSI detects a running instance of the application during the uninstall and requests that it be closed...

I am needing to automate some installation tasks. I first need to determine if there is already a version of a program installed.

How can I completely uninstall the previous version. ...

Hello, I'm having some problems installing Visual Studio 2005. I'll briefly explain what's the history of the problem here. First I installed VS 2005 beta 2. I uninstalled it later via the Windows Uninstall Tool you can download. Then I installed Visual Studio 2005 Team Edition ENU. This was a trial version for 180 days.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
