Command Line Support

Revo Uninstaller Pro supports command line options and has a command processor: RevoCmd.exe.

RevoCmd.exe can be used to list installed programs on a computer. It can be used to list programs by a part of their name, and it can also show the installation location and the uninstall command of a program, which can be then used to start its built-in uninstaller.

If your Revo Uninstaller Pro is installed in the default folder (C:\Program Files\VS Revo Group\Revo Uninstaller Pro), you should navigate to the folder in the Command prompt window using the following command: cd /d “C:\Program Files\VS Revo Group\Revo Uninstaller Pro” Press “Enter” to execute the command.

SYNTAX
RevoCmd /m “program name” [/i] [/u] [/p] /m – match program name using wildcard characters – * and ? The asterisk (*) wildcard represents any collection of characters The question mark (?) wildcard represents any single character

Example: RevoCmd /m Microso* Shows all programs beginning with the name Microso

/i – Include Install Location if it exists /u – include uninstallation command /p – pause on each page /? or /help – this help
