Silently Uninstall

Does anyone know of a way where i can silently uninstall SOAPui? All switches still bring up a user prompt.

  • 🖥 For Windows:
    SOAPUI (especially the Open Source version) usually includes an uninstaller that can be run in silent mode.

    Method 1: Using the Uninstaller Executable
    Open a Command Prompt with administrator privileges.

    Navigate to the SOAPUI installation directory (default is C:\Program Files\SmartBear\SOAPUI-x.x.x\).

    Run the uninstaller with a silent flag:

    cmd
    Copy
    Edit
    uninstall.exe /S
    /S – Tells the installer to run silently.

    Example:

    cmd
    Copy
    Edit
    "C:\Program Files\SmartBear\SoapUI-5.7.0\uninstall.exe" /S
    Method 2: Using WMIC (for older installations)
    cmd
    Copy
    Edit
    wmic product where "name like '%%SoapUI%%'" call uninstall /nointeractive
    ⚠️ Note: WMIC is deprecated in newer Windows versions, so this might not work on Windows 11 or later.
