Deinstallation via software distribution

The procedure for uninstalling ARIS Clients by software distribution is as follows.

Prerequisite

The file silent.properties must not contain any relative paths.

Procedure

  1. Copy the directory ARIS_Client from your ARIS installation package under ARIS_Installation_and_Documentation<version>\Windows setup\ to your hard drive if it does not exist already, for example, due to an installation by software distribution.

  2. Adjust the silent.properties file and adjust the settings as required. Follow the instructions in this file.

  3. Open a command line and run the setup using the silent and removeonly parameters.

    Example: setup.exe -s silent -removeonly

The setup is started and the products entered are uninstalled in the target directory specified in the file silent.properties. The installation directory is retained and the subdirectory Backup is created in it to save the configuration.
