Script to remove all Java plugins
Original script was found in the comments section at http://www.itninja.com/question/silent-uninstall-java-all-versions
You can run this on a computer manually, or deploy using GPO or PDQ Deploy
Create a empty .vbs file, eg purge_java.vbs and paste the code at the bottom of this post.
Run it using:
cscript "\\mynetworklocation\purge_java.vbs" /logfilepath:"%userprofile%"
You could also pipe the output to a log file on a network share so you can keep a track of the progress throughout your network. It creates a seperate log file per computer. This also checks for the presence of an existing logfile to stop the script running multiple times. Put this into a BAT file. The commands I am using keeps the recent Java 7 Update 7. This will preserve both the 64 and 32bit plugins.
@ECHO OFF
REM Logs purge_java.vbs output
REM Checks for previous output and wont run if found
SET LOGFILE="\\mynetworklocation\log\java_purge_%computername%.log"
IF EXIST %LOGFILE% GOTO END
cscript "\\mynetworklocation\purge_java.vbs" /keeponly /versions:"Java 7 Update 7" /logfilepath:"%userprofile%" >> %LOGFILE%
:END
The purge_java.vbs code is below:
