If you don't see Skype for Business listed, then you're using a version that's integrated with other Microsoft 365 apps. Go to Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features > Uninstall or change a program. These all behave the same, the tool runs and does not remove Skype.Īm I doing something wrong with this process? Also, is there a way for me to verify the ProductID for Skype on one of my test systems? I don't see it in any of the installation configuration XML files under the Root folder in Program Files (X86). The following instructions are for customers who have standalone versions of Skype for Business. However, Skype for Business is still installed.Īt first I thought I might have the wrong product ID so I have tried replacing SkypeforBusinessRetail with Lync, LyncEntryRetail, and SkypeforBusinessEntryRetail. It successfully proceeds from steps 1-4 and then tells me I should reboot. Next I run the Office Deployment tool with the command line: setup.exe /configure RemoveSkype.xmlĪfter that I see the Office Deployment tool run. To test the tool I am first killing the skype task: taskkill /f /im lync.exe Here is what my RemoveSkype.xml looks like: I have downloaded the latest ODT and created an XML called RemoveSkype.xml and I have placed it in the same folder with SETUP.EXE from the ODT. I am trying to do this with the Office Deployment tool. I need to create a Skype removal package that I can deploy with SCCM. We want to remove Skype and migrate users to Teams. We have Windsystems with Office 365 including Skype for Business. I've seen other posts regarding Skype removal using SCCM but I can't seem to get the Office Deployment tool to do this successfully.
