# Uninstalling in Silent Mode

Uninstalling in silent mode allows you to uninstall without user input by pointing to a response file.

For uninstallation, you need to create a response (.silent) file with the needed uninstallation parameters. You can use the `.SILENT` file provided with the installation package as a template.

Use the -silent command for performing the silent uninstallation. Pass the absolute path of the response file as an argument if the response file is not in the same folder as `TIBCOUniversalInstaller`. Use `-V uninstallAllProducts="true"` as an argument for uninstalling all products. For a specific product uninstallation, provide the specific product ID and product version along with TIBCO_HOME in the silent file.

Before you begin

A `.SILENT` file should exist with values for at least the following attributes:

- uninstallProductID
- uninstallProductVersion
- uninstallTIBCOHome

Procedure

1. Open a command line, navigate to the directory:

   TIBCO_HOME/tools/universal_installer

2. Run the TIBCOUniversalInstaller in silent mode using the following command based on the response file location:

   Response File Location | Silent Uninstallation Command
   --- | ---
   TIBCO_HOME/tools/universal_installer | TIBCOUniversalInstaller -silent
   Other | `TIBCOUniversalInstaller -silent -V uninstallAllProducts="`<true/false>`" responseFile="`<absolute_path_and_file_name>"

The following sample content of the Uninstall.silent file removes all products from the specified TIBCO_HOME: C:\BE\BE630.
