- Removing AppScan® Source from your system
  You can remove AppScan® Source from the Windows™ Control Panel or with a Linux™ uninstall script. The AppScan Source uninstall does not remove or back up an installed Oracle database. Deleting the AppScan Source user from an Oracle instance is a manual database administrative task.

Running a custom or silent installation

This topic describes, by platform, how to run a custom or silent installation from a command line.

Before you begin

When launching the wizard that allows you to create a custom installation (see Launching the Installation Configuration Wizard), you create an OUNCE_CONFIG_FILE environment variable. Before running the custom installation, ensure that this environment variable is removed.

Procedure

On Windows™ systems, issue this command:
```
AppScanSrc_Installer.exe -f <configuration_properties_file>
```
Where <configuration_properties_file> is the full path and file name of the properties file that is created when you complete the Custom Installation Configuration Wizard (for example, c:\install.properties).
On Linux™ systems, launch the wizard with -f <configuration_properties_file>, where <configuration_properties_file> is the full path and file name of the properties file that is created when you complete the Custom Installation Configuration Wizard (for example, /usr/local/share/my_configs/install.properties).

On 64-bit Linux systems, launch the wizard as described in Installing AppScan Source results in error "Graphical installers are not supported by the vm", but add -f <configuration_properties_file> to the launch command.
