Can't uninstall software throught a task in a client
I defined a Task to uninstall Office in a client. The task should run after "LogOn" but it doesn't run. If the user logs on the Computer with an admin role, the task runs without any problem. But if the user that logs on doesn't have this role, the task doesn't run. Do you know how can I solve this? Thanks, Javier

On the package, program, properties. There is a tab regarding with options like "run with admin rights" or "run as user". If it is set to run with user rights, change it to "run as admin", and "allow user to interact" (check the box). then test, test, test.Standardize. Simplify. Automate.

You cant do this using a command line step in the task sequence unless you specify a user account with admin rights to run it with. As Sherry said create a program in the office package you have distributed with the uninstall command line for the package. If this fails, fins the uninstall key in the registry for office and create a batchfile that will run as a program. This way you can set the properties on the program to run with admin rights.
