NOTES
Example 1: Uninstall a package
PS C:\>Uninstall-Package -Name "DSCAccelerator"
This command uninstalls a package named DSCAccelerator.
Example 2: Uninstall a package by piping results of Get-Package
PS C:\>Get-Package -Name "DSCAccelerator" -RequiredVersion "2.1.2" | Uninstall-Package -Force
This command uninstalls a package named DSCAccelerator by first locating the exact package with the Get-Package
cmdlet, then piping the results of Get-Package to the Uninstall-Package cmdlet. The Force parameter ensures that
you are not prompted to confirm that you want to uninstall the package.
