Uninstall the Microsoft application agent with a silent uninstallation

Learn how to uninstall the Microsoft application agent with the command prompt for a silent installation.

NOTE:If a table-level restore was performed since the last reboot of the host, Microsoft application agent requests a reboot during an uninstall operation. The Microsoft application agent installs and uses the Eldos CBFS driver for table-level restores. The Eldos CBFS driver is loaded during the table-level restore operation. Microsoft requires the driver to be unloaded prior to an uninstall operation.

To uninstall the Microsoft application agent without any intervention, run the following command:

emcmsappagent-19.15.0.0.exe -uninstall -q UninstallAgentService=1 -log "<log_file_path>"

where:

  • -q indicates a silent uninstallation.
  • UninstallAgentService=1 is mandatory for a silent uninstallation. If this option is not added in the uninstall command, then the agent service still exists after the Microsoft application agent is uninstalled.
  • -log specifies the path where the log file must be created or saved.
    NOTE:The log file displays the status of the uninstallation. For a silent uninstallation, you must use the -log <log_file_path> option.

Consider the following example command to silently uninstall the Microsoft application agent:

emcmsappagent-19.15.0.0.exe -uninstall -q UninstallAgentService=1 -log "C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\uninstallLog.txt"
