Automated tool to remove symantec AV

  • 772

I need a tool to automatically remove Symantec AV (~v10.0) from desktops when the uninstall password is not known or the install is corrupt. I know some AV products will do this for you if they can (Trend sometimes) but in other cases it would be great not to have to remove it manually since this is about 33 steps.

anti-virus symantec

    I have created a set of scripts to do just this task. You can download them Here

    You have to into each of the batch files and edit them so that matches your enviroment.

    Let me know if you need more info or if you have issues. This script has been used on thousands of machines at my company.
