Question

Silent uninstall of CS5.5

We have CS5.5 install on several computers across our district.  We have recently purchased CC and are in need on uninstalling 5.5 remotely and silently.  I have come across a couple of answers but none of them work.  I installed them by simply running setup.exe, no deploy

Tried this

“C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE\PDApp\DWA\Setup.exe” –mode=Silent –deploymentFile=”%PATH%\uninstall-en_US.xml”

When I grab the XML file from the deploy folder and run the above I get:

UI mode: Silent

Error : install source path does not exist.

Exit Code: 20

Maybe because I didn't use the XML to deploy it?

I tried this tool, but all it does it remove the entry in add\remove

Use the Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems

I didn't install using AIMEE so I don't think I can uninstall with it?

Thanks for any help!
