Powershell Silent Uninstall “Microsoft Report Viewer Runtime 2012”

Question

I have tried many of the common approaches(MSI, PowerShell) to silently uninstalling the following application:

MSI

$ReportVie         


        

Answer 1

It appears as thought when you do a silent uninstall error's are suppressed as well, when I attempted to uninstall the package in the UI, I was presented with a dialog asking me to located the MSI file for the application. Not sure how it got this way but I fixed it by re-downloading the package and uninstalling it from there. Would be nice not to have to package a MSI with my powershell script just to uninstall an application, but right now I don't have a better resolution.
