You mean try MSIEXEC /qb?  That sounds like it will work, thanks.

 

If not I can try /qr and that may work.  Even /qn would work as long as it 
prompts for reboot.  We tried /passive and it worked, but unfortunately our 
patch uninstall initiates a reboot and we thought a reboot with no 
acknowledgement was unacceptable.

That's how MSI works for patch uninstall: the original product is 
repaired with the patch removed.

You could invoke the patch uninstall with basic UI.
