Is there a way to programmatically invoke an uninstaller in the control panel?

296 views Asked by At

I have developed an AddIn for Outlook, we didn't want to use VSTO, but did want to distribute/update it using ClickOnce. So I built a ClickOnce app that is actually the installer/updater. This of course necessitated a home-grown uninstaller as well.

All works as desired, except for one little rough spot: to fuly uninstall the app the user must run the uninstaller from the start menu and uninstall the installer/updater from the control panel.

It would be nice if I could launch that control panel uninstaller from my home-grown uninstaller's code.

TIA
