I need to uninstall flash player from 1200 machines (Windows) silently.

I have Flash player uninstaller, it asks to close the browser to uninstall Flash.

Is it possible to uninstall flash player silently? If yes, please provide me the uninstaller

    Hi,

    You can uninstall Flash player silently using command line (Run as administrator):

    "Name of the uninstaller" -uninstall

    Please make sure that flash content is not playing on the browsers for seamless un-installation.

    Thanks!

    Thanks for providing the solution.

    But, i need to push the uninstaller from SCCM console to all the machines. Is it possible to push the uninstaller with admin rights?

    Hi,

    Could you please mention why you need to uninstall FP. Instead, we would recommend you to move to the recent released version of Flash Player (24.0.0.194).

    Thanks
