Unable to perform an unattended uninstallation of Adobe Technical Communication Suite 4

Hello,

I have been able to create an unattended installer for the Adobe Technical Communications Suite 4 using the AAMEE v3.1.

However, I am having difficulty performing an unattended uninstallation for the same.

The uninstall string in the registry is :

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE\PDApp\core\PDApp.exe" --appletID="DWA_UI" --appletVersion="2.0" --mode="Uninstall" --mediaSignature="{A9A31111-475C-403B-A5D1-0E79748B723F}"

The product uninstalls successfully with this command but in full GUI.

So far I've been quite reluctant to find the silent switch to PDApp.exe.

I have the following questions :

1. Is there a silent switch to PDApp.exe, that could be used to uninstall TCS 4 ?

2. Can we create a silent uninstaller for TCS 4 using AAMEE, just as we created a silent installer ?

3. If none of the above mentioned is possible, is there a workaround ?

Please help. Any lead would be helpful to get to the solution.

Thanks in advance.

You might get someone to answer you here, but IMHO it would be faster to just contact Adobe Support.
