Opera Uninstaller

Avatar
Craig Keener

Just curious if anyone has any ideas on creating a Opera uninstaller.  It refuses to be uninstalled off Windows 10 for me on about 200 computers.

    Hi,

    Do you have any suggestions as to uninstalling the user installed Opera GX with PDQ?

    The command line generated by PDQ Deploy is "%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Programs\Opera GX\Launcher.exe" /uninstall

    However, this just gives the user a prompt to uninstall. I want to uninstall with no user intervention. I have not found any /silent parameter or similar (launcher prompts the user if he/she wants to delete browser data). 

    The scenario is that the users do not have admin privileges, but Opera allows them to install in their profile. 

    Do I have to make a script to do this? :-\
