Hello,

I looked in the forum an example to remove activex, but did not find anything.
Is there a way to remove an activex with Kixtart in %windir%\Downloaded Program Files.

Thanks for the answer.

I did not test it, but I presume something like
msiexec /x <ProductCode>
for ProductCode, right click the Program File and look at the properties

Thanks, but the Activex Control cannot be removes with MSIEXEC /X.
The activex control is not considered like an installed application on the system.

An other suggestion ?

Uninstalling an activex control can be done with regsvr32. After unregistering it it can be deleted. I'm not sure but after unregistering it you might need a reboot before you can delete the file itself. The user running this should probably have some kind of admin privileges.
