A mechanism for automatically generating the software program for returning a client system to its initial state following a software installation is implemented. The mechanism rests on an object-oriented architecture that provides a multiplicity of actions that effect software management operations on the target system. The actions are implemented as methods within the object-oriented architecture. In this way, each software element, for example registry entries files, directories, etc., which may be implicated in a software deployment, are treated on an equal footing. The mechanism builds a program which, when executed, restores the target client to its unmodified state.
