The Chocolatey package manager supports silent installations via the command below. It doesn't seem to have an uninstall command.

cinst install packagename

Is there a way to uninstall an application via Chocolatey?

As I answered here, you can use

cuninst packagename

to uninstall a package.

Details can be found at Uninstall Command.

Edit: For new versions, should use choco uninstall packagename.
