Solved: Qlik NPrinting silent uninstall - Qlik Community

brenests77 · ‎2019-08-12

Hello everybody,

We need to update Qlik NPrinting from version September 2018 SR1 to April 2019 SR1, so we want to make it automaticly, using the uninstall string like Qlikview. The problem is that I can find it in the Windows registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall.

Is there any other way to do it besides the manual way?

Kind regards!

Hi @brenests77

I would not recommend attempting a proprietary uninstall procedure. Also it is not necessary to uninstall NPrinting to perform an upgrade between the versions you are referencing.

Hi @Frank_S ,

In this case we did the upgrade of the Server and Engine manually. The process we want automate is the Qlk NPrinting Desktop for the users.
