问题:

The Chocolatey package manager supports silent installations via the command below. It doesn't seem to have an uninstall command.

cinst install packagename

Is there a way to uninstall an application via Chocolatey?

回答1:

As I answered here, you can use

cuninst packagename

to uninstall a package.

Details can be found at Uninstall Command.

Edit: For new versions, should use choco uninstall packagename.

Update: Chocolatey now has primitive support for uninstall through 'cuninst packagename'. With that though the package authors need to provide a chocolateyUninstall.ps1 file that would undo all of the things that the install did. It's limited because

There are no functions defined in the Chocolatey PowerShell module that would help with uninstall
There is no automatic removal of MSIs
Uninstall only removes the most current version of a package in the machine repository (instead of giving you options to remove a certain one or all of them)
