      Hi Everyone,

      as someone already brought to attention, the silent uninstall stopped working a while ago (https://forums.opera.com/topic/52484/solved-silent-uninstall-is-no-longer-working). Has there been any updates to this?

      For our business and software-deployment, the option to silently uninstall any give program is essential. Will this feature be added again, or is it maybe already added again as a different switch?

      Kind regards

        If it's still not working, I would assume it's still intentional that it's not. Not sure of any plans to change that. @gmiazga

          I´m pretty sure its intentional. But i really can´t wrap my head around the reason for it. For businesses however this is pretty bad and will most likely force us to replace opera at some point 😕

            I second this. The silent switch is a must.

              I third this, for a business with over 7,000 people we need to be able to force an uninstall or even and install upon users with any interaction...

                Silent Uninstall really needs to be re-implemented, having a pop-up on a customer computer when you're running a uninstall remotely is unacceptable.

                This will make us recommend other browsers to customers.

                Please rethink this.

                  @gmiazga, Have there been any more discussions about reintroducing the silent uninstall option?

                    @dwaderich Considering that all my Tickets with their support have been swiftly ingored...i would say that there are no plans to bring it back any time soon.

                    We started to drop Opera from our devices.
