Hi Roland, There is no uninstall App step in TS. But it is possible to do if you use a script-based Detection Method and a TS variable.
The problem is the discovery, and a normal discovery method would end up looping when you try to put uninstall command lines in the deployment type. Basically the detection method must return true if the app is deployed normally, to allow for install/uninstall in software center. And you need to wrap your install deployment type in a script as well. Like setup.vbs or setup.ps1 for example. Add into your detection script that is the ts environment if present, then look for a ts variable like action=uninstall. If no variable is present then it will return the same value as when used normally. If it finds the variable then it returns false regardless. This forces the app to run even if the app is already installed. The setup script must determine if this uninstall action is called and run the command line accordingly. I have this working in a large environment quite happily. From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Roland Janus Sent: Montag, 26.

I have 4 apps, with install and uninstall I install them with a TS using "install application" They install fine, but how do I uninstall that group again? There is no uninstall when using the install app step in a TS. Can apps be uninstalled when using a TS? What am I missing? -R
