- PackageName | {
ProductCode }
- Specifies an installation as the target of the Msizap command.
Type the product code or the path and file name of the MSI package
file, such as c:\ptree.msi. If you do not specify an installation,
then Msizap commands apply to all Windows Installer installations
on the computer.
- ALLPRODUCTS
- Indicates all Windows Installer installations on the computer.
ALLPRODUCTS is required when using *.
- *
- Deletes all Windows Installer configuration data on the
computer. ALLPRODUCTS is required when using *.
-
This parameter deletes the folders, files, registry subkeys and
registry entries in which Windows Installer stores configuration
data, including rollback data and the InProgress registry subkeys
for each installation. It also stops the Windows Installer service,
deletes published icons (icons that offer to install a program),
and adjusts shared DLL counts.
- T
- Deletes Windows Installer configuration data for a specified
installation.
-
This parameter deletes the folders, files, registry subkeys and
registry entries in which Windows Installer stores configuration
data for the installation (except for rollback data and the
InProgress registry subkey, which are specified separately). It
also stops the Windows Installer service, deletes published icons
(icons that offer to install a program), and adjusts shared DLL
counts.
- P
- Deletes the InProgress registry subkey.
-
This parameter deletes the subkey that indicates to Windows
Installer that an installation is in progress
(HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\InProgress).
While this subkey remains in the registry, Windows Installer will
not install another program. Because Windows Installer deletes the
InProgress subkey when an installation completes, this subkey is
present only for an active installation.
- S
- Deletes rollback data.
-
This parameter deletes the Rollback registry subkey
(HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\Rollback),
rollback scripts, and backup copies that enable Windows Installer
to restore the computer to its original state when an installation
stops before it is complete. Because Windows Installer
automatically deletes rollback data when an installation completes,
rollback data is present only for an active installation.
- W
- Extends the command to all user profiles. By default, Msizap
deletes and changes user-specific data only for the current
user.
- A
- Gives Adminstrators Full Control permission to the folders,
files, and registry subkeys specified by other parameters in the
command. When combined with A, other parameters specify
which object DACLs are changed; they do not direct Msizap to delete
installation configuration data.
-
When using T, you must specify an installation by package
name or product code. When using *, you must specify
ALLPRODUCTS.
- !
- Suppresses all confirmation messages.
- ?
- Displays help.
