This article was previously published under Q316021 On This PageSYMPTOMS
When you use the "Remove software when no longer advertised" advanced SMS program property, the following SMS Status messages may not be generated during software removal by SMSAPM32. Additionally, SMSAPM32 may not remove software that is no longer advertised in the three documented scenarios for software deinstallation (see the "More Information" section of this article for a description of these scenarios).
SMSAPM32 Software Uninstall Status Messages

10015 - The uninstall program for advertisement "XXXnnnnn" completed successfully ("package name" - "program name"). An exit code of zero was returned. SMS Advertised Program Manager (APM) determines status for each program it executes. If APM cannot find or correlate any install status Management Information Format (MIF) files for the program, it uses the program's exit code program to determine status. An exit code of zero is considered successful.
10016 - The uninstall program for advertisement "XXXnnnnn" completed successfully ("package name" - "program name"). The success description was "........". The program generated an install status Management Information Format (MIF) file with a status value of Success. For more information, see the documentation for the program you are distributing.
