Guest nvduffer@gmail.com Posted July 20, 2007 Posted July 20, 2007 I am trying to automatically uninstall certain applications using the DOS command line. For MSN Messenger 5.0 I can use the following command: msiexec /x {ABEB838C-A1A7-4C5D-B7E1-8B4314B10138} /quiet /passive / norestart I am looking for the "product code" (the "ABEB838C-A1A7-4C5D- B7E1-8B4314B10138" value) for other applications, specifically: - Outlook Express - MSN Messenger 4.7 - NetMeeting .... with other apps perhaps in the future. I know there are other ways to remove these apps using RunDll32 but I would like to try using only msiexec. Is there a list of these "product codes" available somewhere?

Go look at the uninstall key in the registry to see what the program itself listed as its proper uninstall string under: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Uninstall
