    newtotechcom-J I Installed it using your install command. I used this as the uninstall string, which also removes the Visual Studio installer after uninstalling Visual Studio Pro 2022:

    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\Installer\vs_installer.exe" /uninstall --passive

     

    It does, however, leave the CoreEditorFonts installed. You can put the command above and this one below in one uninstall.cmd and use that as uninstall string:

    MsiExec.exe /X{1851460E-0E63-4117-B5BA-25A2F045801B} /qn

     

    Your initial uninstall string didn't work because it needed a space behind the Installpath before specifying the --quiet option

Let us know and visual studio code? You're installing visual studio pro now, visual studio code is different and updates itself. Not sure if you need Admin rights for that....

Sorry I meant Visual Studio close pro.
If I want to use the update command in intune, which arguments should I use?
What commands should I use to update Visual studio code pro?

    I think you can create a new one like this one and use supercedence without uninstalling the current version. Package the new installer download and create a new package, select the older one to be superceded and not to be Uninstalled. But that's something you will have to test
