Here are the steps which I followed to install Visual Studio on 32 bit as well as 64 bit machines. I assure you that you can save atleast 1 to 2 man days by taking information from here before proceeding with your packaging.
Copy the compete source to a directory and name this directory as per your standard naming convention.
Copy these files to this main directory (Explanation and details also provided later)
- VS2010_Uninstall-RTM.ENU.exe
- Dfusrprf.xml
- User.vbs
- Arpsuppress64.reg
- Arpsuppress32.reg
- Arpsuppresswow64.reg
- ConfigurationFile.ini
- Setup.vbs
- Uninstall.vbs
- Uninstall.bat
You can use WISE Script Editor to create an exe for most of the part. Since I wanted to give the content in a simpler way, I am mentioning it like this in text for you.
Details of these files are:
- VS2010_Uninstall-RTM.ENU.exe: This is the uninstall file provided by Microsoft and this will un-install any version of Visual Studio. You can download this from http://archive.msdn.microsoft.com/vs2010uninstall/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=4321
- Dfusrprf.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="no"?> <!DOCTYPE userprefs> <dotfuscator> <p982>True</p982> <p974>False</p974> <p984>False</p984> <p979>0</p979> <p981>0</p981> <p985>False</p985> <p975> </p975> <p976> </p976> <p980>0</p980> <p973>False</p973> <p986 /> <p990>False</p990> <p987 /> <p989>0,0,0,0</p989> <p988 /> </dotfuscator>
- User.vbs: The Dfsusrprf.xml needs to be copied in each users profile, you can use active setup to run this file in each user. You can use the below content for this file:
Set oShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell") Set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") On Error Resume Next sCurDir = Left(WScript.ScriptFullName, InStrRev(WScript.ScriptFullName, "\") - 1) sup = oShell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings ("%USERPROFILE%") If Not oFSO.FolderExists (sup & "\AppData\Local\PreEmptive Solutions\Dotfuscator Community Edition\5.0") Then oFSO.CreateFolder sup & "\AppData\Local\PreEmptive Solutions" oFSO.CreateFolder sup & "\AppData\Local\PreEmptive Solutions\Dotfuscator Community Edition" oFSO.CreateFolder sup & "\AppData\Local\PreEmptive Solutions\Dotfuscator Community Edition\5.0" End If oFSO.CopyFile sCurDir & "\dfusrprf.xml" , sup & "\AppData\Local\PreEmptive Solutions\Dotfuscator Community Edition\5.0\" , OverwriteExisting
- Arpsuppress64.reg: Suppress Add/Remove Program (ARP) Entries in 64 bit

- Uninstall.bat: To uninstall through deployment tool, you should use this .bat file so that it removes SQL and all other components as well. I have made this batch script so that it runs on both 32 and 64 bit machines:
@echo off if exist %windir%\sysnative\cmd.exe ( cd %windir%\sysnative ) SET SUBDIR=%~dp0 wscript.exe %SUBDIR%Uninstall.vbs

This seems to work flawlessly on Windows 7, but I am having issues on windows XP. I seem to be getting a 3015 return code on xp. Any suggestions?
I made this for Windows 7 nad have not tested it on XP. It should work for both 32-bit and 64-bit machines.
I am not sure about the XP error..
Here what exactly the function of Dfusrprf.xml??
I am not exactly sure, but it is installed as part of one of the Visual Studio Components and to make it to copy to every user profile I have written this script.
In Visual Studio 2012, this Dfusrprf.xml file gets created when user launches the shortcut "Dotfuscator and Analytics" for the first time and it contains the user preferences. Also to suppress automatic update (which is also a part of user preference) for Dotfuscator and Analytics this file is used.

Thanks a lot Abhishek for this input :)
will this script run for Ultimate VS 2012(Win 7)..... and if not will you please give the script for the same, i have a problem while unistalling it....
I have not tested if this will work for Ultimate edition, but you can give it a try.
Excellent work Piyush, you have once again saved me a lot of time.
I have some questions about the Uninstall script:
After uninstalling SQL Server 2008 with the .ini file. And then proceeding to uninstall VS2010 with VS2010_Uninstall-RTM.ENU.exe.
I am curious what these guids are for exactly...
code1 = "{B7E38540-E355-3503-AFD7-635B2F2F76E1}"
code2 = "{4F44B5AE-82A6-4A8A-A3E3-E24D489728E3}"
code3 = "{B40EE88B-400A-4266-A17B-E3DE64E94431}"
In my installation I did not have anything installed for the first 3 GUIDs once I had performed the two other steps above. However the last GUID was valid and did uninstall a product.
It's not a big deal as I can see that by performing the steps in your script manually, I have successfully removed VS2010 from the machine, but was still curious to know what applications these GUIDs are meant to represent.
Thanks..
I don't remember what these GUIDs are now, but would be some component installed as part of VS.
I'm guessing these are components installed in the "Pro" version of VS2010, I'm installing the standard one, so no big deal.
Thanks again, you're a champ!
Hey.....Its really helpful
Thank you!
