Exit code 3010 means "reboot"; see the corresponding reboot flag.

In the 'remove' section, change the third part of the alphanumeric chain (i.e. the '1033' in 'AC76BA86-7AD7-1033-7B44-A70500000002') into the correct locale ID (LCID) / National Language Support (NLS) code, for example:

  • Chinese (Traditional): 1028
  • German: 1031
  • English (US): 1033
  • French: 1036
  • Japanese: 1041
  • Korean: 1042
  • Polish: 1045
  • Chinese (Simplified): 2052
  • Italian: 1040
