Uninstall application from user profile via live terminal

[WaqasS]

Does anyone know how to uninstall an application from a users profile via live terminal on cortex XDR. The user has a windows 10 enterprise computer but its installed on their profile. I am trying to uninstall a software called "Screen Share" (publisher: Screen Leap). I tried the below 3 commands but it wont work. 

1)

Uninstall-Package -Name ‘ScreenShare’ -Force

2)

Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Product -Filter "Name='ScreenShare'" | ForEach-Object { $_.Uninstall() }

3)

wmic product where name="ScreenShare" call uninstall /nointeractive

Hello,

Uninstalling software via the terminal can be tricky, especially if it’s installed on a user’s profile. Let’s troubleshoot this for you:

Check Permissions:
Ensure that you’re running the commands with administrative privileges.
Open the terminal as an administrator (right-click and choose “Run as administrator”).
Command Options:
The commands you’ve tried are valid, but let’s refine them:
For PowerShell

Uninstall-Package -Name 'ScreenShare' -Force

For WMI:

Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Product -Filter "Name='ScreenShare'" | ForEach-Object { $_.Uninstall() }

For WMIC

wmic product where name="ScreenShare" call uninstall /nointeractive

Check Software Name:
Confirm that the software name is correct (case-sensitive).
Double-check the publisher name (Screen Leap).
Silent Uninstall:
Some applications require additional parameters for silent uninstallation.
Check if the software supports silent uninstall (e.g., /quiet, /uninstall, etc.).
Log Files:
Look for log files in the software installation directory or system logs.
They might provide clues about why the uninstallation failed.
Manual Removal:
If all else fails, consider manually removing the software:
Navigate to the user’s profile folder (e.g., C:\Users\Username).
Look for the software folder (e.g., ScreenShare).
Delete it manually.
Registry Cleanup:
Check the Windows Registry for any remnants of the software.
Be cautious when editing the registry; backup first.
Remember to document your steps and proceed carefully.

Hope this will help you.
