Hi Rick,
There has been a Corrective Action Request filed concerning this matter (CAR #3TAB8S00), as this functionality was available in previous versions of LabVIEW.
Here is a proposed workaround that was utilized by another customer:
Look for a key named UninstallString. The key holds a value that Add\Remove Programs executes when you click "Remove". You can execute the UninstallString from a command line or programmatically. I have pasted an example below. I use Windows XP Professional, so the key path may vary. HTH
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Products\
9040110900063D11C8EF10054038389C\InstallPropertiesDisplayName: Microsoft Office Professional Edition 2003
UninstallString: MsiExec.exe /I{90110409-6000-11D3-8CFE-0150048383C9} <-
You can execute this from the command line.
You could potentially write a VI to read through the registry and find UninstallString for the program you'd like to remove. Then you call the MsiExec.exe as above from the LabView command System Exec.vi to send the command line.
