How to uninstall two applications at a time in Windows System?

Time:03-18

I need to uninstall 2 Programs/Applications from the Application Wizard (Control Panel).

When I try to uninstall the non related application to the current uninstalling application also, I'm getting this dialogue box:

May I Know that We can uninstall more than one application from the application wizard in the Windows OS?

CodePudding user response:

This seems to be a by-design limitation in the UI. Most uninstallers should tolerate being run side by side although this does increase the possibility of a race condition related to how SharedDLLs registry entries are managed.

If the two applications you want to uninstall are always the same you could copy their UninstallString values from the registry and put them in a batch file:

@echo off
start "" "c:\someapp\uninstall.exe"
start "" "msiexec" /x {...code...}

You can also use multiple instance of WinGet to uninstall.
