   # Example

   To uninstall openit_ingress_1_x64.msi, located at C:\Installers, in unattended mode with all logging information stored in an output log file at C:\uninstall.log:

   Example

   msiexec /x "C:\Installers\openit_ingress_1_x64.msi" /l*v "C:\uninstall.log" /passive

   When using the passive mode, wait until the process bar dialog disappears.

   When using the quiet mode, verify that the uninstallation is complete by opening the Task Manager and checking in the Details tab if the msiexec process is still running.

Open a terminal with root user privileges and run the following command:

rpm -ev openit-ingress
