Hi @Saankara

The 'Office Management' tag focuses more on general issue of Office deployment. Scripting is beyond our support. Thanks for your understanding. But I will share my idea.

To uninstall Office Standard 2013, you may use /uninstall [ProductID] command with .xml file (this file needs to be put in standard.ww), like:

cd <the path of source files>

setup.exe /uninstall Standard /config standard.ww\<.xml>

The .xml file:

<Configuration Product="standard">

<Display Level="none" CompletionNotice="no" SuppressModal="yes" AcceptEula="yes" />

</Configuration>

For more, please refer to: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/office/office-2013-resource-kit/cc178956(v=office.15)?redirectedfrom=MSDN#uninstall-productid

Besides, I find a similar thread, please checkout Joffles's reply.
