drekhi18027yWhy didn't you hit refresh Windows it would have not only removed all the softwares but also would have reinstalled your windows?

@drekhi12
I need to get my files first.
I can't access my files for some reason, so I am doing many stuffs.
I will format later. -
xnor15267yI'm interested to know how you did it. Ths is something new for me, can you explain a little bit?
I can see that you were using visual studio. So, you are going to run MsBuild directly? What about debugging? Breakpoints? -
http4184077yOr as the forks in my office say, " that has been automated using an AI based solution"
-
@babanomania Oh, yeah! I used a lot of highly professional algorithms to do this.

Jifuna37267yYou mean your program manually uninstalled them like deleting program files, program data and some edits in the registry?
-
@Jifuna @Raamakrishnan I list all the program paths, and the script searches for uninstallers, run them, I go through the uninstall process, when the uninstaller closes, wait for additional 10 seconds, then move on.
I will release if I am ready, I had help from other people who said that this code was "proprietary". -
drekhi18027y@irene I agree that can happen that's why I don't let the windows to get update. (Also most of the time I'm on Linux)

philcr54Linux doesn't need viruses people fuck that shit up themselves
Uninstalling literally everything in my laptop including IDEs and tools. It summed up to 94 programs.
I then wrote a simple C# console app that automates the process.
It is running 28/94 currently.
I love being a programmer.
