I am currently writing a script that has involves a number of uninstalls of programs installed on a WES 7 device. One of the applications I need to uninstall (VMware Horizon View Client) asks for a restart. When this is part of the script, it seems to accept the default button (YES) and proceeds to reboot the device. The script therefore fails.
I would really appreciate your help in how to prevent this reboot from taking place.
FYI: This script is sent down via a management tool and is run in an elevated manner on the target.
This is my script:
set-executionpolicy unrestricted ############################################################# # Un-install unwanted applications ############################################################# $application = Get-WMIObject Win32_Product -filter "Name='ThinPrint Client Windows 8.6'" $application.Uninstall() $application = Get-WMIObject Win32_Product -filter "Name='2X Client'" $application.Uninstall() $application = Get-WMIObject Win32_Product -filter "Name='Adobe Reader X (10.1.4)'" $application.Uninstall() $application = Get-WMIObject Win32_Product -filter "Name='VMware Horizon View Client'" $application.Uninstall() $application = Get-WMIObject Win32_Product -filter "Name='VERDE VDI User Tools'" $application.Uninstall() $application = Get-WMIObject Win32_Product -filter "Name='vWorkspace Connector for Windows'" $application.Uninstall() ############################################################# # Remove Internet Explorer Access ############################################################# dism /online /norestart /Disable-Feature /FeatureName:Internet-Explorer-Optional-x86 ############################################################# # Remove IE Browser LNK from Taskbar ############################################################# del "C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\Launch Internet Explorer Browser.lnk" ############################################################# # Make Citrix Receiver the shell ############################################################# Push-Location CD 'HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon' New-Itemproperty -path .\ -name Shell -Type String -Value 'c:\program files\Citrix\Receiver\receiver.exe' Pop-Location set-executionpolicy restricted # End of Script
I would very much appreciate some help in how to prevent the reboot half way through the script.
