Hi, just changed some lines it ... nothing much but again.. you will need to change the displayname to exactly the app you whish to remove 🙂

$OfficeUninstallStrings = ((Get-ItemProperty "HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\*") |
Where {$_.DisplayName -like "Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise - en-us"} |
Select UninstallString).UninstallString
ForEach ($UninstallString in $OfficeUninstallStrings) {
$UninstallEXE = ($UninstallString -split '"')[1]
$UninstallArg = ($UninstallString -split '"')[2] + " DisplayLevel=False"
Start-Process -FilePath $UninstallEXE -ArgumentList $UninstallArg -Wait
}

Looks like its working at my end

  Hi Rudy_Ooms_MVP
  
  I am unable to remove office
  
  Here is the script (which I have tried to run manually on the device rather than intune first)
  
  $OfficeUninstallStrings = ((Get-ItemProperty "HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\*") |
  Where {$_.DisplayName -like "Office 16 Click-to-Run Licensing Component"} |
  Select UninstallString).UninstallString
  ForEach ($UninstallString in $OfficeUninstallStrings) {
  $UninstallEXE = ($UninstallString -split '"')[1]
  $UninstallArg = ($UninstallString -split '"')[2] + " DisplayLevel=False"
  Start-Process -FilePath $UninstallEXE -ArgumentList $UninstallArg -Wait
  }
  
  Any idea where I am going wrong?

    I guess that one is not the one you need 🙂
