You'd have to write code to do it, with a custom action. You'd need to run
msiexec /x {product code guid}

It's unusual to do this, it's kind of very 10 years ago. You're expected to
do this via Add/Remove Programs because that's where there are repair
options, support links etc. I think the Logo program says don't do it. I
have a bunch of apps installed on several systems, and none of them have an
uninstall link on the Start menu.
