Thanks Tim for the reply. I started looking along the same lines.
It looks like, I need to give the Product details exactly as it is
registered(?).
Trying out stuff like:
>>> import wmi
>>> appname = "IsoBuster 1.9.1"
>>> c = wmi.WMI()
>>> for product in c.Win32_Product(Caption=appname):
print product.Caption
ret_val = product.Uninstall()
print ret_val
>>>
Did not work.
There is script example given the M$ site:
<example_snippet>
strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _
& "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" _
& strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
Set colSoftware = objWMIService.ExecQuery _
("Select * from Win32_Product " _
& "Where Name = 'Personnel database'")
For Each objSoftware in colSoftware
objSoftware.Uninstall()
Next
</example_snippet>
I guess to convert the same to python. I shall try more and keep
posted.
Thanks,
Senthil
