Windows had forcibly installed Silverlight on my system, and I wanted to remove it, however, I did not find any Silverlight listed in the Programs and Features section of the Control Panel. In order to remove Microsoft Silverlight, run the following from the command line:

wmic product where caption='Microsoft Silverlight' call uninstall

Executing (\\MABLE\ROOT\CIMV2:Win32_Product.IdentifyingNumber="{89F4137D-6C26-4A84-BDB8-2E5A4BB71E00}",Name="Microsoft Silverlight",Version="5.1.40728.0")->Uninstall()
Method execution successful.

};
