Detection Method

[jhailey]

Everyone,

 

I currently have a package created that uninstalls three programs using the uninstall string I got from the registry. I want to turn the uninstall package into an application. I am just not sure what to use for the detection method to setup the application. Any help I would appreciate.

 

Thanks

If these are MSI's you can use the product code of the application.

 

When creating the detection method there is an option for MSI, browse to the MSI and it will automatically find the product code for you.

Another option would be to find the product code in the registry.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall

 

Or you could use something like ORCA to find the details in the property table.

 

If you are not using an MSI you could use a rule to find an existing file or reg key or folder.

Hi,
As you ar uninstalling three different softwares with a script you detection method should identify all three as detection methods and the command you want to run as uninstall, under the uninstall command, then you deploy it as intent: Uninstall and the detection method will detect that all three where removed.
