How to uninstall MF COBOL Server silently from the command line?
You may use the same setup file that was used to install MF COBOL Server to uninstall the same product from an elevated command prompt:
start /wait <setup-file-exe> /quiet /uninstall
where <setup-file-exe> would be for example:
Please take note that the uninstallation process of COBOL Server does not uninstall MF License Manager automatically. In order to uninstall License Manager, you will need to know its product GUID. This is a long string that is enclosed within braces, e.g. {C4920323-C34A-4462-9C3E-BA0325BBD9BA}
The product GUID is different from a version of COBOL Server to another, and you may find it from the Windows Registry:
Once the product GUID is determined, you may run the following command to uninstall License Manager:
start /wait msiexec /qn /x <product-guid>
Examples:
To uninstall License Manager for COBOL Server 2013 version 2.2 Update 2 on a 64-bit Windows platform:
start /wait msiexec /qn /x {C4920323-C34A-4462-9C3E-BA0325BBD9BA}
To uninstall License Manager for COBOL Server 2010 version 2.1 Update 1 on a 32-bit Windows platform:
start /wait msiexec /qn /x {7548D756-87E6-4C2A-9CC2-D9270564BEFB}
