Unattended uninstallation

To uninstall a component or feature of Acronis Backup in the unattended mode, you need to run the msiexec utility. This utility uses the corresponding installation package (an .msi file).

To uninstall a component or feature

1. Extract the corresponding installation package to a folder or a network share.
2. Run the following command (here, the installation package is assumed to be AcronisAgentWindows.msi, saved in the \\myserver\share network share):

   msiexec /uninstall \\myserver\share\AcronisAgentWindows.msi /qb

Uninstalling an agent

When you uninstall an agent, we recommend first uninstalling its features, then the agent itself and then the Acronis Backup Agent Core component.

For example, to uninstall Agent for SQL, run uninstallation commands in the following order:

msiexec /uninstall \\myserver\share\AcronisAgentMsSqlSinglePass.msi /qb
msiexec /uninstall \\myserver\share\AcronisAgentWindows.msi /qb
msiexec /uninstall \\myserver\share\AcronisAgentCore.msi /qb

Uninstalling the license server

If you need to uninstall the Acronis License Server, you should do so after uninstalling all agents that use it. Also keep in mind that the license server may be used by other Acronis products.

The license server is integrated with the management server. To uninstall the management server, run the following command (change the path if needed):

msiexec /uninstall \\myserver\share\AcronisManagementServer.msi /qb

To uninstall the license server installed as a separate component, run the following command (change the path if needed):

msiexec /uninstall \\myserver\share\AcronisLicenseServer.msi /qb
