Blackspear 0 Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 I have set up a Client Task to remove other 3rd part AV software, the latest edition of AVG 2015 FREE, Kaspersky Internet Security 15.02 and also the latest FREE version of Avira, however, even though it shows as “Task finished successful”, it hasn't done a single thing, all 3 of the 3rd party AV’s remains installed:Client Task Detail: Uninstall 3rd Party AV Software - SummarySummary ExecutionsBasicNameUninstall 3rd Party AV SoftwareDescriptionTask TypeSoftware UninstallSoftware uninstallation settingsUninstallThird-party antivirus software (Built with OPSWAT)Targets and TriggersTarget Namevmwin7-001.paige.localTrigger DescriptionExecute ASAP (Expires: 2015 Aug 3 02:47:21 UTC)Target Namevmwin7-003.paige.localTrigger DescriptionExecute ASAP (Expires: 2015 Aug 3 02:47:21 UTC)Target Namevmwin7-002.paige.localTrigger DescriptionExecute ASAP (Expires: 2015 Aug 3 02:47:21 UTC)Is OPSWAT limited to business editions, or can it remove Home editions as expected?I have seen so many small business clients install the home edition onto a network, then upgrade to ESET Endpoint and want to push out an uninstaller like this task should be able to complete.Advice please.

Thanks Marek, however this is not the AV Removal Tool, this is a pushed task using OPSWAT. Kaspersky is the current release: 15.02.361 (a) Avira is the current release: 15.0.11.574 AVG is the current release: 2015.0.5961 Cheers Edited July 9, 2015 by Blackspear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackspear 0 Posted July 9, 2015 Author Share Posted July 9, 2015 (edited) Thanks Marek, now we are getting somewhere. This should be mentioned and highlighted in this KB article: hxxp://kb.eset.com/esetkb/index?page=content&id=SOLN3638 Cheers Edited July 9, 2015 by Blackspear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackspear 0 Posted July 10, 2015 Author Share Posted July 10, 2015 I uninstalled the current release of Kaspersky, and reinstalled an older verion: Kaspersky Anti-Virus 14.0.0.4651 which is on the AV Remover list, however the task runs and fails, no further information given. Where can I locate information as to why the task failed? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackspear 0 Posted July 16, 2015 Author Share Posted July 16, 2015 Manually installing AV Remover on the Client, it starts to remove it and then fails with the attached screenshot showing the details. This is a fresh install of Windows 7, fully up to date, with not a single other piece of software installed on the machine. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
