Silently removing Mcafee Security Scan Plus

[cyclone3d]

After searching the web for instructions on how to remove Mcafee Security Scan Plus, the only valid instrctioons I found were for version 2.0.x

After installing the newer version 3.0.x and doing some digging around I found an .ini file that gave me the command to do the uninstall of 3.0.x silently.

2.0.x silent command is:

on 32-bit:
"%ProgramFiles%\McAfee Security Scan\uninstall.exe" /S

on 64-bit:
"%ProgramFiles(x86)%\McAfee Security Scan\uninstall.exe" /S

3.0.x silent command is:

on 32-bit:
"%ProgramFiles%\McAfee Security Scan\uninstall.exe" /S /inner

on 64-bit:
"%ProgramFiles(x86)%\McAfee Security Scan\uninstall.exe" /S /inner

I am guessing that the 3.0.x command might also work on 2.0.x, but since I have no computers with 2.0.x installed, I have no way of testing.

The other way to uninstall 3.0.x silently is to edit the .ini file and delete the options under the [UIFLOW] section and then just run uninstall.exe.
