The very fact of considering this letalone executing on this means I will be actively boycotting purchasing ANY games through this storefront, and will be boycotting games if I cannot buy them elsewhere. If I click on GAMES instead of SHOP, why the hell am I seeing a shopfront and not my GAMES… Blizzard to be honest this is completely unacceptable and is frankly impossible to be an oversight. I absolutely and whole-heartedly agree, the fact that a games LAUNCHER does not have a MY LIBRARY option of games, sorted by installed in alphabetical and then uninstalled in alphabetical with a working search bar is an absolute disgrace. It would be better if this were an actual search option that could be used to search for app terms, games info, and maybe even support or forum topic discussions.Īlso as a side-note: There are games missing from the launcher itself. The Blizzard Desktop app “Looks” Like it has a search bar located to the left of the “all games” option but instead appears to only be a monocolor graphic with no real functionality. Return to dropdown listview or at least provide a toggle-able switch option (ie: Clicking on Blizzard games opens a list beneath it with titles of Blizzard’s games instead of the bulky, and in my oppinion, unsightly square app view) User-friendly options for Friends list, Such as being able to separate the list and/or conversations from the launcher app itself into a new separate window or even having options to have the friends list remain open while I’m running a Blizzard/activision game even if I’ve already closed the app after launching said game. The ability to remove/add games lists (Including the ability to create my own custom list and delete/hide undesired lists) I strongly suggest implementing user-friendly customization options such as: I Preferred the cleaner look compared to this mess that’s called an “app” It doesn’t need to be mirrored in any fashion by anyone other than Windows itself. The “Windows” look is gross, clumsy, disorganized, and horribly inefficient. The launcher was far more clean and seemed better organized before this odd update that made everything more “Let’s change it to look like a windows 10 appview” mess I shouldn’t be seeing them on the main page view. There’s a shop tab which is where I feel that all of the above mentioned “Lists” should be located. But all it has is “All Games”, “Favorites”, “Blizzard”, and “Activision” with no options to remove or hide these lists from the main page view… I much preferred when the launcher only showed games I actually had installed (or owned) If it is, you can make a Dynamic Group for and just run that tool against all of them.-The new “look” of the Blizzard “app” is not only ugly and unsightly, but it offers no options to hide things I don’t want to see. dll files, but running it a second time will.īe sure to save that tool so you can run it again if this is a constant issue. I don't know why, but the first time it runs it can't delete some. ps1 and made a PDQ Deploy job that runs it TWICE (just 2 steps that run this script) and it will clear everything out, but you have to tell the job to continue on error, otherwise it will stop the first time it gets any errors. Future PDQ Inventory scans won't show it as installed because it's not there anymore. It will force stop the agent and bnet processes, remove all relevant folders (including from ALL user\appdata folders, NOT just the logged on user), then remove the uninstall entry from the registry. Remove-Item HKLM:\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\ -Recurse -force Remove-Item 'C:\users*\appdata\roaming\' -recurse -force Remove-Item 'C:\users*\appdata\local\blizzard entertainment' -recurse -force Remove-Item 'C:\users*\appdata\local\' -recurse -force Remove-Item 'C:\programdata\' -recurse -force Remove-Item 'C:\Program Files (x86)\' -recurse -force I couldn't get it to successfully run using Deploy because of error codes, but I was able to get it to run using the PDQ Deploy run command as a multi-line powershell script. So you need to run a multi-line powershell script. That means that any of your PDQ Inventory reports would still show it as installed. Force removing all the files doesn't really work either, because the registry still sees that entry for Bnet. Making an uninstall package from PDQ Inventory doesn't work because Bnet needs user interaction to uninstall. OP, we have PDQ in our environment too, so I figured I'd give this a go and install it on my machine and try to silently uninstall.
