You can simply use WMIC in a elevated command line or batch file to remove all programs that match the name Java. The following example used in a batch file or executed through command line would remove all instances of Java from the computer. Example: wmic product where "name like '%Java%'" call uninstall

  • for some reason it didn't work for me. I used below script it worked perfectly. but one question, though...during the install it asks whether you want to remove the old version of java from users machine who had it installed before...is there any way to tell it to uninstall other old version that I mentioned above?

    start /wait MsiExec.exe /X{26A24AE4-039D-4CA4-87B4-2F32180102F0} /qn REMOVEOLDVERSIONS=Yes IN_PROFILENAME=Production-JavaSetup8u231.exe

    start /wait msiexec.exe /i "JavaSetup8u241.exe" /qb!
    start /wait msiexec.exe /i "JavaSetup8u241.exe"

    looking forward to hear back from you all. - anonymous_150373 4 years ago
    • That I am unsure of. I normally remove big lists of programs like that through the command line interface to avoid all the GUI on screen popups and to streamline the process since almost every installer for windows is different depending upon who made it. Sorry I couldn't help with this one - ERalee 4 years ago
