Remove App Using Powershell

I have the following powershell script, but the result returned is always 1603 even when running with elevated rights, as administrator.

     $app = Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Product -Filter "Name = 'Microsoft Visio Standard 2013'"



  if ($app) { 

    echo $app

    $app.Uninstall() 

 }

Error returned:

That's no error, that is the output of Write-Output $app (echo is just an alias for that cmdlet). IS the app uninstalled?

Sorry, I understand what you mean. It isn't an error as such. I meant that the value of 1603 returned from the Uninstall method is indicating that the program is not uninstalling. No, it doesn't uninstall.

That exit code is unfortunately a generic MSI failure code. The official MSI documentation states that 1603 translates to "A fatal error occurred during installation." Run the MSI uninstall manually with a verbose logging and it should give you clues as to why its failing. (Command: msiexec.exe /x {90150000-0053-0000-0000-0000000FF1CE} /l*v %temp%Uninstall.Log /qn /norestart) If you need help, post the log and we can help.

[16:35:25:527]: Unable to delete the file outside of the engine. LastError = 2 MSI (s) (18:E4) This is the failing statement. Could you check if the file C:WindowsInstaller7c8008.mst is still present on your system, or if the permissions are messed up?
