How to Uninstall Lync 2010

I'm having issues uninstalling Lync 2010 from my machines. I have the .exe file that was used to install it, but I can't find a goo way to mass uninstall. Using PDQ Inventory I can run the Uninstall script, but that only works for that specific machine and I can't move that into PDQ Deploy to uninstall Lync 2010 on all my machines. Here's the command from PDQ Inventory for 1 machine :

MsiExec.exe /qn /norestart /X{81BE0B17-563B-45D4-B198-5721E6C665CD}

Going the route of having it uninstall when I install Lync 2013 via an .MSP file hasn't worked for me either.

Do you have any better way to uninstall Lync 2010 or is there a way to convert my command in PDQ Inventory to use for all my machines?

Hi Garrett,

There are two things you can do with the uninstall string from here. Since this command is stored in your recent commands drop down, you can select multiple machines in your console, right click and choose Tools -> Remote Command (Ctrl+Alt+C) and then choose that command again from the drop down menu. You may have to put any additional success codes from the original command window as well.

Alternatively, you can copy the command and success codes after testing in Inventory to a new package in Deploy and use a command step to copy the command into. Put the associated success codes in and you should be ready to deploy to your machines.
