I have some vendor software where I am trying to uninstall (following their
procedure) by obtaining the uninstall command and install location from the
windows registry. I do this by querying win_reg_stat and storing result in
two facts. I am then trying to execute the variable via win_shell and
win_command in various guises but with no success. Even stripping it back
to the bare uninstall command with no parameters is proving difficult eg
win_shell: "{{ uninstall }}"
args:
executable: cmd
or
win_command: "{{ uninstall}}"
Worth noting, the registry variable contain spaces in the directory path(eg
C:\Program Files x86\blah\blah\uninstall).
I have tried various combinations of \", ' characters but seem
unsuccessful.
Anyone got a working example of executing a DOS command when defined as a
variable with spaces in its directory path?
Thanks
Gareth
