MSIPATCHREMOVE property

The MSIPATCHREMOVE property specifies the list of patches to remove during an installation. Individual patches in the list are separated by semicolons and can be represented by patch code GUID or the full path to the patch. The MsiRemovePatches function and the RemovePatches method of the Installer object set the MSIPATCHREMOVE property.

The MSIPATCHREMOVE property can be set on the command line as follows to remove a patch.

msiexec /i A:\Example.msi MSIPATCHREMOVE=c:\patches\qfe1.msp;{0BBB87F1-3186-409C-8CDD-C88AA2A4A7E0};{A86B443B-E3BF-4009-ADED-F716FC735858}/qb
