Configure uninstall command line for exe installers

When creating a Custom App from an exe installer, allow an input field to configure the uninstall command line.

Also, when creating an app using a MSI installer, I would like to specify a custom uninstall command line. For example, we have a security product that has tamper protection configured after it is installed and the traditional command line would fail to uninstall it. We would need to supply the encrypted password to the command line for the uninstall to succeed.

    We're in a similar boat for one of our applications. The uninstall requires referencing an answer file which doesn't appears to be supported with custom apps. Our workaround is to modify the uninstall string in Intune but that isn't ideal.

    We also have a similar scenario where an app we use does not store the uninstall command in the registry, which is most likely causing issues when packaging from PMPC Cloud. Looking at the logs, the uninstall command is not specified and we have to go to Intune and manually add it.

    It would be ideal if we can at least review the uninstall command identified by PMPC Cloud, once the installer is uploaded, and then modify it if needed.
