Basic Uninstall assistance [SOLVED]

engjcowi · October 25, 2011

Hi guys i need some help if someone would oblige.

I am using this small code below to make a very basic uninstaller. It displays everything thats installed with no problems however under the uninstall string field it shows some strings with " " around them and others without. The strings with " " around them, when i right click and select uninstall they work with no issue but the ones without the quotes come up with an error.

can anyone help please? im using a 64bit of windows 7 and wondering if thats whats causing the issue.

i originally go this script from here -

thanks in advance

in the _ComputerGetSoftware(). This should add quotes to the keys that do not have them.

...... $aSoftwareInfo[$i][0] = StringStripWS(StringReplace(RegRead($UnInstKey & "\" & $AppKey, "DisplayName"), " (remove only)", ""), 3)

Did you test that before and after with a relevant install? Whatever, I'll post my try, and have egg in my face if yours was enough... :graduated:

@engjcowi

I just took a stab at the ask toolbar i apparently had on this puter... not mine.

and this ---> MsiExec.exe /X{86D4B82A-ABED-442A-BE86-96357B70F4FE}

didnt work.

putting a space after the x, did... though windows installer asked me if I was sure, without showing me what I was uninstalling... Some switch should be added and the question be put by the script instead, or notatall...

Manko · October 25, 2011

If I try to uninstall the orbicam... I get this:

RunDll32 C:\Program\DELADE~1\INSTAL~1\PROFES~1\RunTime\09\01\Intel32\Ctor.dll,LaunchSetup "C:\Program\InstallShield Installation Information\{76AC1AEB-1167-4ABC-8861-4E58392A5B7F}\setup.exe" -l0x1d

It doesn't work... I looked at _Uninstall() function it uses ShellExecuteWait which wants "parameters" separate... this causes problems... I tried runwait and uninstall worked for all cases i tried. no problem with space after /x or "" around strings...

iamtheky · October 25, 2011

Did you test that before and after with a relevant install?

Nope, didnt even try and guess what was going wrong. Figured if quotes were added, and it still failed, then at least the OP could eliminate them as the culprit.

The runwait indeed works, and i will adjust the script in the thread he references accordingly. -- Though where I got those pieces from still eludes me.

Manko · October 25, 2011

@boththose: Ha! Sorry, never followed that link... well, I just ran the script on my win7 x32 laptop, and it doesnt show all installed software... (Not SO many since win7 was quite recently installed so I could test in win7...) Haven't looked into it. Just wanted to give a headsup about it...

/Manko

engjcowi · October 25, 2011

Hi guys

Thanks the change of shellexecutewait to runwait has done the trick. cant beleive i missed that. guess ive been starting at the code for too long lol

jamie

iamtheky · October 25, 2011

Yeah a couple of folks noticed the issue with it not returning 7-zip at the top of list, but I hadnt noticed any other items in the uninstall key that dont display. You have any specific examples I can try?

Manko · October 26, 2011

As I'm at work, I could not fully reproduce the omissions... But I found one.

And the explanation is that you need to also scan the same path under HKEY_CURRENT_USER.

This might have been the explanation for all the omissions at home too... will check tonight.

Perhaps one should scan under all users, but the above is minimum...

/Manko

Chimaera · October 26, 2011

If you going after all possible uninstalls

Then you need to check these keys from some work on a similar thread ive been helped with

"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall"
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall"
"HKLM64\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall"
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall"

Is there a way to make the above script check them all?

Manko · October 26, 2011

@chimaera: Yes, ofcourse. I think you could do it. I believe in you!

@boththose: Also I found case like 7-zip. "µTorrent" is in regpath in script, but isn't displayed... or was 7-zip just a sorting thing?

[EDIT: below...]

The problem with 7-zip and "µTorrent" is in the arraysort-call, the $aSoftwareInfo[0] that contains number of items is sorted too.

Sollution: Change this:

Return _ArraySort($aSoftwareInfo)

into this:

Return _ArraySort($aSoftwareInfo,0,1) ; sort from $aSoftwareInfo[1]

thanks manko, i updated my original effort in case anybody stumbles upon it.

engjcowi · October 28, 2011

Hey guys

Heres an addition to the script that will show more if not hopefully all the uninstall keys. Im pretty sure that the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall location will show the same as the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall" location.

With the function below i get all the uninstall keys on my comp which is 64bit win 7.

Just add the function to the original code.

Thanks

Or a way to make it read $svalue against all the keys then $sValue1 against all the keys?

and then decide which is actually there?

because InstallLocation is not always present in the registry

engjcowi · October 28, 2011

Ahhh cool. I like both ways lol. Ive not got xp or 32 bit system to test on at the moment but i like the check for the existence of the reg locations first. Hopefully we will get a nice complete knocked up between us

Chimaera · October 28, 2011

even all 4 keys doesn't guarantee success some keys like addons for firefox are held elswehere in the registry

Ive just rewritten a new try and im testing atm more to come

Chimaera · October 29, 2011

Ok here is the code hope you like it

Thx to all that helped especially guinness, Geosoft and PsaltyDS.

Rough explanation you just supply it the reg key name and it checks the registry against 4 subkeys where the data we need is held, it does them in this order

InstallLocation - generally but not always available
Inno Setup: App Path - less common but sometimes available
DisplayIcon: Generally available ( deducts from end of string back and including first \) to give path
UninstallString Generally available ( deducts from end of string back and including first \) to give path

as not all keys are present its the only way ive found that gives half a chance of getting the info, It trys the most common first then onto the less good but seems to do the job

Lemme know if you have any thoughts

; Function:  _RegSearch
;
; Purpose:  Performs a recursive search of the registry starting at $sStartKey, looking for $sSearchVal
;
; Syntax:  _RegSearch($sStartKey, $sSearchVal, $iType = 0x07, $fArray = False)
;
; Where:  $sStartKey = Reg path at which to begin search
;      $sSearchVal = The string to search for, or RegExp pattern to use if $iType bit 3 is set
;      $iType = Matching types to return:
;          1 = Key names
;          2 = Value names
;          4 = Value data
;          8 = $sSearchVal is a RegExp pattern (default is StringInStr)
;          Add bits together for multiple match types, default is 7 (all types, StringInStr matching)
;      $fArray = Return an array of results vice the string ([0] = count)
;
; Return value:  On success, returns a string containing a @LF delimited list of matching key names and values:
;      Where a key name matches, it is listed as a reg path with trailing backslash:
;          i.e. HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\
;      Where a value name matches, it is listed as a reg path without trailing backslash:
;          i.e. HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WallPaperDir
;      Where the data matches, the format is path = data:
;          i.e. HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WallPaperDir = %SystemRoot%\Web\Wallpaper
;      On failure, returns 0 and sets @error.
;
; Notes:    No matches is not an error, returns "" or an array with [0] = 0 depending on $fArray
;          Default StringInStr() matches are not case sensitive.
