Silent uninstall with options files

When running the uninstall silently you can specify an options file. The options file allows you to:
  • Set the uninstall to silent
  • Select which features to uninstall
The following example options file sets the uninstall to run silently, and chooses to uninstall all the features except the Documentation feature.
#specify silent uninstall
-silent
#set features to active
-P Java.active=true
-P Documentation.active=false-P CBindings.active=true
-P Native.active=true
Note:
  1. Include the -is:silent flag in the options file if running the uninstall from a launcher.
  2. Do not leave any blank lines in the options.txt file.
  3. Start all lines with #..., or a valid command.
  4. You can have multiple commands on a single line.
The following examples show how to run the uninstaller with an options file:
From the jar file
java -cp uninstall.jar run -options C:\options.txt
From a launcher
uninstall.exe -options C:\options.txt
