Uninstall by 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 installation media to your hard drive if it does not exist already, for example, due to an installation by software distribution. You will find it on the installation media under Setup/Windows.
  2. In the directory ARIS_Client delete the file repo.
  3. Create a standalone file (without file extension) in the ARIS_Client directory.
  4. Open the silent.properties file and adjust the settings as required. Follow the instructions in this file.
  5. 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.
