About this task

In the example, silent uninstallation of the IBM Security Verify Directory package from a Windows system on an AMD64/EM64T architecture is shown.

Procedure

  1. Log in as a member of the administrator group.
  2. Access the command prompt.
  3. Change the current working directory to the directory where the IBM Security Verify Directory installable is stored.
  4. Create an uninstall script file by running the following command: 
    setup.exe /r /f1uninstall.iss
    Note: This command uninstalls the package, and produces the uninstall.iss script file. This script file can then be used in the future to silently uninstall the package.

    setup.exe /s /f1uninstall.iss
