I have a MSI for my WPF app. I am able to install it. After that I get my app in Windows 8 start window. Then I right click on my app icon their. After right click, un-installer option come, when I click on un-installer, it goes to control panel. From their I can un-install my app. But I want to start my un-installer without going to the control panel. Is it possible? If yes, How can I do this?

  • Did you add the functionality in the context menu of the app icon to show a Uninstall option? Are you sure you're right clicking the app icon and not the MSI icon? – Kcvin Jun 23 '14 at 15:27

  • Also, use `msiexec /uninstall [Product Code Here]` to uninstall using command-line. – Kcvin Jun 23 '14 at 15:36
  • @NETscape : I did't not add anything to my app to show this un-install option, in Windows 8, in start page, in any app icon you do a right click, it will show 4/5 option in below bar, where un-install comes. Then If you click on that, it will redirect you to control panel page. From where you can un-install your app. But I want to start un-installation operation before it redirect you to control panel. This is my application icon. what do you mean by MSI icon – San Jun 24 '14 at 09:59
