I want to delete HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall{GUID} if executing its UninstallString results in an exit code 1605 (application is not installed).
I can do this if I were uninstalling a single application and knew its GUID, but I’m using a script meant to remove any version of the product. My first thought is to copy Remove-MsiApplications and modify it to do what I want - I’m ASSUMING I can get it to do what I want.
Before I do that, does anyone else have a better idea?
If you’re interested in why:
Before I unleash this on the remaining 3,000 computers that have at least one of these products installed, I’d like a solution that is dynamic and not have to add problem GUIDs to my script as they crop up…because this needs to be done in the next 6 business days.

Actually, it proved not to be too difficult to create a list of GUIDS (I already had the info in a spreadsheet.)

You could of used Get-InstalledApplication to check if the application was installed and return the GUID of the MSI if it was present. Or you could search through the uninstall key for Box_Tools and return the GUID that way.
