As well, you can look in the windows registry in the Uninstall key (but need to
find the specific key for your python installer)
# this registry key is for version 3.9.12 (but the only thing that would change
on other versions would be the final key name: the GUID)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{33807E24-D0B9-45A0-A48D-51A432CD27E8}
Once you have found the registry key for Python, look at the UninstallString
value:
Which is this for one of my PCs:
MsiExec.exe /I{33807E24-D0B9-45A0-A48D-51A432CD27E8}
From there, you could add a /q or /quiet for a quiet uninstall…
For more help with the windows MSIEXEC util, run msiexec /? And it will give
you a lot of help/switches
I hope that between these 2 answers, we have given you everything you need.

Subject: Re: [python-win32] Uninstallation Command Required
Depends on how it was installed. If you used the installer from
python.org<http://python.org>, it might look like this:
python-3.11.1-amd64.exe /uninstall /quiet > uninstall.log
(Adjust the name of the executable to match the version you installed.)
If you used some other distribution (for example, from ActiveState) follow the
instructions provided by that distributor.
