title: Uninstalling an MSI file from the command line without using msiexec
body: <p><code>msiexec</code> is command prompt software that installs an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Installer" rel="noreferrer">MSI</a> program. But I have found that you can install an MSI file from the command line by just typing in the name of the MSI file on the command line.</p>
  
  <p>But in order to uninstall the MSI file, it seems you have to call the <code>msiexec</code> program and give it a <code>/x</code> or <code>/uninstall</code>.</p>
  
  <p>How can I uninstall an MSI from the command line without using the <code>msiexec</code> routine?</p>
