I'm trying to uninstall Visio 2016 using this command:
setup.exe /configure uninstall.xml
The uninstall.xml constains:
<Configuration>
<Remove All="TRUE">
<Product ID="VisioStdXVolume" >
<Language ID="en-us" />
</Product>
<Property Name="FORCEAPPSHUTDOWN" Value="True" />
</Remove>
<logging level="standard" Path="C:\VisioSTDUninstall.log" />
<Display Level="None" CompletionNotice="no" SuppressModal="yes" AcceptEULA="TRUE"/>
</Configuration>
It works, except that instead of only removing VisioStdXVolume, it uninstall Visio and the entire Office suite?
How do I edit it to only uninstall VisioStdXVolume?

Hi Kalimanne,
What's your current existed Office apps? Please go to Control Panel > Programs and Features, list all your Office related products. Also open the Visio product which you want to remove, go to File > Account, please provide the Product Information to us. We can help you to determine which Product ID should be used in Configuration.xml file.
If you only want to remove volume license activated click-to-run version of Visio Standard 2016 (English version) from current computer, we can use the following RemoveVisio.xml:
<Configuration>
<Remove>
<Product ID="VisioStdXVolume">
<Language ID="en-es" />
</Product>
</Remove>
<Property Name="FORCEAPPSHUTDOWN" Value="TRUE" />
<Display Level="None" />
</Configuration>
Best Regards,
Winnie Liang

I tried changing the remove all = true to just remove, but now it just fails.
Any ideas on how to silently remove Visio or Project click-to-run?
