Predictive Analytics Desktop uninstall

[former_member263184]

Dear Sir or Madam,

can you give me any information how to uninstall the SAP Analytics Predictive Desktop Software without using the Windows GUI? The only thing i found so far is this section in the official guide:

https://help.sap.com/viewer/f2ba2229f63148ef862cf2ef28e981eb/3.1/en-US/e79316d680b7101487253286b0e91...

Because you already offer the feature of a silent installation (https://help.sap.com/viewer/f2ba2229f63148ef862cf2ef28e981eb/3.1/en-US/41c33adb28084e36adb7ecfad57f1fdf.html), can you also offer a silent deinstallation of the software? This is needed to uninstall the software automatically in large PC pools. For example to update the software to a newer release.

Kind regards,

Bert Braasch

Hi,

Can you try:

cd "C:\Program Files\SAP BusinessObjects Predictive Analytics\Desktop"

"setup.exe" -u product.predictiveanalytics-4.0-core-32 -q

The installation directory might be different than the one provided above.

Regards

Yes thank you very much! That was the option we needed, everything is working fine now.

Yes thank you very much! Everything is working fine now.

Can you add this parameter to the official documentation or where could i find this information without your help?

That's great. I will liaise with my documentation colleagues and make sure they follow-up on this. Kind regards Antoine

Also, would that work if instead of uninstalling then reinstalling silently you would be able to upgrade silently?

Hello Bert, I'll follow up and get back. Kind regards Antoine
