    msiexec /x "C:\Installers\openit_ingress_1_x64.msi" /l*v "C:\uninstall.log" /passive
    note

    When using the passive mode, wait until the process bar dialog disappears.

    When using the quiet mode, verify that the uninstallation is complete by opening the Task Manager and checking in the Details tab if the msiexec process is still running.
