I am looking to silently uninstall CS 5.5 as part of our migration to CS6 and beyond. We plan on using the AMMEE tool to package and then deploy silently to our users and have a good handle on that portion of the process.
The big challenge seems to be uninstalling previous versions of silently. We are too large of an organization to go from desk to desk to manually perform the
uninstall. I have found plenty of documentation for removing CS3/CS4 but it starts to get grey for CS5/5.5.
I have been trying something along the lines of this which I found on the interwebs:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE\PDApp\DWA\Setup.exe" -mode=Silent -deploymentFile="path to uninstall file"
As well as something along the lines of:
msiexec.exe /x {product code} /quiet
The goal is to uninstall the CS suite(s) or standalone products installed, run the Adobe cleaner script to remove an lingering bits of Adobe and then install CS6, so we want package this up as script that can be run remotely and do these upgrade after hours and without interrupting the daily workflow.
thanks

Hi,
We’d like to rent 6 Cintiqs 22HD for a couple of months.
Anybody knows a company that would do this ?
Does anyone have a rep contact at Wacom they can PM me, maybe they can loan us some demo models?
Cheers,
F.
Hi Rob,I've been meeting this past few weeks with various people in the commercial production world about a new collaborative media review tool (called Frankie) that we've recently introduced. Given the nature of your business, I thought you and your team might be interested in having a look at Frankie, too. It can be a great complement to Interdubs, which I believe you've been using for some time.Running in a browser, Frankie enables you to review and discuss video media between multiple locations, with play controls, drawing tools and notes perfectly synchronised between all participants. It's built upon the same technology as our Academy Award winning cineSync software, but tailored for short-form content production workflows. It requires no software installation and no plugins, and it takes care of the media hosting and transport. It's really easy to learn and fun to use.Frankie makes it simpler and more effective when working with clients in other countries or cities ? or even just elsewhere in Toronto. WIPs can be reviewed and discussed quickly, using drawing tools to illustrate exactly what you mean, eliminating ambiguity. And it's ideal for discussing storyboards and sketching out ideas to make sure that everyone is on the same page right from the start.How does that sound? Would you have some time in the next week or two for a phone call to discuss this, and run through a really quick demo? I'm based in Australia, so we can connect via phone or Skype one evening your time (early morning over here).Looking forward to hearing from you soon!Kind regards,Jeremy.
