Hello!

We are planning to use FreePDF for converting all kind of files to PDF, that's a very nice program.

But first we have to install Ghostscript in silent mode, because we use a software management system.

The silent install should not be the problem, I had found some switches.

But I can't find anything about a silent uninstall of Ghostscript.

What switches should I use for a silent uninstall? I hope, that somebody can help me.

Thanx!

Andrč Döking

Uninstalling Ghostscript is divided into three parts:

1) Uninstall the Ghostscript fonts:

"%PROGRAMFILES%\gs\uninstgs.exe" "%PROGRAMFILES%\gs\fonts\uninstal.txt" -q


2) Uninstall Ghostscript v8.xx:

"%PROGRAMFILES%\gs\uninstgs.exe" "%PROGRAMFILES%\gs\gs8.xx\uninstal.txt" -q


3) Delete the program folder:

rd "%PROGRAMFILES%\gs" /S /Q


You'll have to use the quotation marks when (un-)installing Ghostscript under Windows Vista!

Better late then never :whistle:
