I need to be able to basically install and uninstall at will because I'm getting CORs issues and different results based on install status. Ironically, it seems that the setup.exe is deleted after I uninstall. I'm basically looking for a script that will do both, try and look/use setup.exe and look for offline installer. If the installation is upgraded, I think I need to use the setup.exe. This issue is compounded by the fact that when I install offline, MS will still update/install via setup.exe found in the normal "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\EdgeWebView\Application\1*\Installer\" location.MicrosoftEdgeWebView2RuntimeInstallerX64.exe /silent /uninstall Note: This is similar to How to uninstall Microsoft Edge WebView2 but I'm specifically talking about the version installed offline and uninstalling via CLI.

Setup.exe -uninstall -msedgewebview -system-level -verbose-logging -force-uninstall cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\EdgeWebView\Application\1*\Installer\" Occasionally, I install it manually via a downloaded package.Īll the links online talk about uninstalling via the following, but I noticed it only works when Microsoft installs it without my consent. No other program has forced installation like this.

I have a severe hate for Microsoft Edge WebView2.
