David,
I am just curious.... Why did you install PTC Portmapper ?
Martin Hanak
I am unsure as to why it was installed. It wasn't something I specifically installed must have came in with something else that was selected during our install.
According to my knowledge, PTC Portmapper is necessary to install when user uses CADDS5 system. So uninstall it using Windows UI and never install again.
I need a silent uninstall string. Windows UI is not an option for my customers.
Creo 2.0 can be uninstalled using following command
C:\Program Files (x86)\PTC\Creo 2.0\Parametric\bin\uninstall.exe –quiet

I don't have the uninstall for the PTC Portmapper however I have used the following for other PTC components. I think it would be similar to the Parametric and Simulate removal commands:
start /w "" "%UNINSTALLPATH%" -quiet
