Question : Adobe 5.0 Auto-uninstall
|
|
What is the easiest way (other than going to hundreds of machines and not using SMS) to uninstall Adobe 5.0? As anyone knows, adobe does not make their products to overwrite eachother. How do I get 5.0 off so that the next version can go on clean? Even if scripting is the best way, what would the approach be?? Thanks!

OK. Check out this path in your registry and look under Adobe 5.0 for a value called UninstallString.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
For example, if I wanted to uninstall Adobe Premier 6.0, I could run this command from a batch file (this is straight from my registry under the "UninstallString" value):
C:\WINDOWS\UNINST.EXE -f"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Premiere 6.0\DeIsL1.isu" -c"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Premiere 6.0\Uninst.dll"
