EDIT: Over the years this answer has gotten quite a few upvotes. I would like to add some comments. I have not used PowerShell since, but I remember observing some issues:

1. If there are more matches than 1 for the below script, it does not work and you must append the PowerShell filter that limits results to 1. I believe it's -First 1 but I'm not sure. Feel free to edit.
2. If the application is not installed by MSI it does not work. The reason it was written as below is because it modifies the MSI to uninstall without intervention, which is not always the default case when using the native uninstall string.

Using the WMI object takes forever. This is very fast if you just know the name of the program you want to uninstall.

$uninstall32 = gci "HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall" | foreach { gp $_.PSPath } | ? { $_ -match "SOFTWARE NAME" } | select UninstallString
$uninstall64 = gci "HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall" | foreach { gp $_.PSPath } | ? { $_ -match "SOFTWARE NAME" } | select UninstallString

if ($uninstall64) {
$uninstall64 = $uninstall64.UninstallString -Replace "msiexec.exe","" -Replace "/I","" -Replace "/X",""
$uninstall64 = $uninstall64.Trim()
Write "Uninstalling..."
start-process "msiexec.exe" -arg "/X $uninstall64 /qb" -Wait}
if ($uninstall32) {
$uninstall32 = $uninstall32.UninstallString -Replace "msiexec.exe","" -Replace "/I","" -Replace "/X",""
$uninstall32 = $uninstall32.Trim()
Write "Uninstalling..."
start-process "msiexec.exe" -arg "/X $uninstall32 /qb" -Wait}

If you create a file called "servers.txt" and place your list of servers in it you could also reference $computerNames as follows:

$computerNames = Get-Content "C:\some-directory\servers.txt"
$appName = "AppName"
$yourAccount = Get-Credential
ForEach ($computerName in $computerNames) {
    Invoke-Command -ComputerName $computerName -Credential $yourAccount -ScriptBlock {
        Get-WmiObject Win32_product | Where {$_.name -eq $appName} | ForEach {
            $_.Uninstall()
        }
    }
}

I've used this approach many times in production environments and it seems to work for me. Always test this in a non-production environment before completing in a prod environment.

Hi Experts,

I have to uninstall Microsoft Visual C++ 2019 X64 Additional Runtime - 14.29.30133 & Microsoft Visual C++ 2019 X86 Additional Runtime - 14.29.30133 software from my Control panel and Registry.

I have tried from the below powershell code, I am not getting any error. But Its not uninstalling. Not working.

Can someone provide me effective powershell script to uninstall it.

I am looking forward to hear from you.

$Myapp1 = Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Product | Where-Object{$_.Name -eq "Microsoft Visual C++ 2019 X64 Additional Runtime - 14.29.30133"}
$Myapp1.Uninstall()
$Myapp2 = Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Product | Where-Object{$_.Name -eq "Microsoft Visual C++ 2019 X86 Additional Runtime - 14.29.30133"}
$Myapp2.Uninstall()

I was able to write a small PowerShell script for my specific need:

# Name of the software to check
$softwareName = "O365ProPlusRetail - de-de"

# Check if software is installed
$software = Get-ItemProperty HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\* | Where-Object { $_.PSChildName -match $softwareName }

if ($software -ne $null) {
    # Software is installed, uninstall it
    & 'C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\ClickToRun\OfficeClickToRun.exe' scenario=install scenariosubtype=uninstall sourcetype=None productstoremove=O365ProPlusRetail.16_de-de_x-none culture=de-de version.16=16.0 DisplayLevel=False forceappshutdown=true
    Write-Host "$softwareName has been uninstalled."
}
else {
    # Software is not installed
    Write-Host "$softwareName is not installed."
}

it works for me but this is not a general solution.
