The steps below show how to perform a silent uninstall of the PowerOlap Client.

To perform a silent uninstall, a setup.iss file must be created. This file will require the user to run through the uninstall steps once to record the selections made and will then perform these selections when running the uninstall silently. 

• To create the setup.iss file, follow these steps:

1. Open the command prompt window
2. Type: cd c:\PowerOLAP Installations (or the file path of your PowerOlap setup.exe file)
3. Hit “Enter” and type: setup.exe /r
4. This will run through the uninstall process and record selections in the setup.iss file
5. The setup.iss file will then be created and located in the c:\Windows folder. 
6. Move this file to the same folder as the setup.exe file.

Now that the setup.iss file has been created and has been moved to the same location as the setup.exe file, the uninstall can be performed silently. 

• To perform the uninstall silently, follow these steps:

1. Open the command prompt window
2. Type: cd c:\PowerOLAP Installations (or the file path of your PowerOlap setup.exe file)
3. Hit “Enter” and type: setup.exe /s /f1”c:\PowerOLAP Installations\v16.0XX\setup.iss” (note there is no space between f1 and the “)
4. This will silently uninstall the PowerOlap Client.
