How to uninstall SQL Server Exp 2008 R2

[gurvin_net]

How can we uninstall sql server 2008 express R2 that we install with our application? We would like to uninstall sql server managed way so that we know its uninstalled successfully and then do post uninstall clean up and show some progress of completion.

Hi,

Just like it is installed, you can use the (Un)Install MSI Setup plugin to uninstall the MSI package upon uninstallation.

But the most important thing is display status (% complete). Users don't expect to wait without any progress notification. How can we show % complete when uninstall is running. Same implies for installation of sql server - how to show progress with % completion.
