leostor 0 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Hi All I need to uninstall eset endpoint AV 5 on all the clients of the site, unfortunately the license on the management console has expired a few days ago. I'm trying to uninstall from the command line using an MSI package of eset endpint av 5.0: MSIEXEC / uninstall "C: \ temp \ eea_nt32_enu.msi" / qb REBOOT = "ReallySuppress" PASSWORD = password .... but I get the error: This action is only valid for products that are currently installed .. the version is eset endpoint antivirus 5.0.2229.1 Any idea?

Administrators Marcos 4,708 Posted December 3, 2018 Administrators Share Posted December 3, 2018 You'll need to uninstall it manually in safe mode using the Uninstall tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Marcos 4,708 Posted December 3, 2018 Administrators Share Posted December 3, 2018 If it's possible to uninstall it in a standard way via Add and remove programs, maybe this would work unless the settings are password protected: (Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Product -Filter "Name='ESET Endpoint Security'" -ComputerName . ).Uninstall() Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Marcos 4,708 Posted December 3, 2018 Administrators Share Posted December 3, 2018 Haven't tried it but the following might work: MSIEXEC /x %GUID% /qb REBOOT="ReallySuppress" PASSWORD="password" Find the appropriate GUID under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall.
