    I am not aware of a way to uninstall from the command line.  I will have to check.

    I forgot to ask you the OS and version you're using.

    Windows 10.  Thank you for checking Edward. Silent install is easy. Uninstalling is proving to be a challenge.

    One of my colleagues provided this command for doing a silent uninstall of the PAM client:

    "C:\Users\jfry\CA PAM Client\_CA PAM Client_installation\Change CA PAM Client Installation.exe" -i silent

    Bear in mind that it will do a reboot.  We couldn't figure out a way to avoid the reboot without creating an answer file, but adding
    '-DUSER_REQUESTED_RESTART=NO ' might do it.
