Unattended Uninstall of an an Instance

  1. Unattended Uninstall of an an Instance

    How do I uninstall an instance of SQL Server 2005 from the command prompt
    unattended?
    The following command line give me the error "Microsoft SQL Server 2005
    Setup was unable to install on your computer."

    "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Setup Bootstrap\Setup.exe"
    /Action=Uninstall /FEATURES=SQL /INSTANCENAME=MyInstance

  2. RE: Unattended Uninstall of an an Instance

    I have found an article with the following command but it brings up all
    instance names. Is there a way to provide an instance name to this command
    line?

    "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Setup Bootstrap\ARPWrapper.exe"
    /Remove
