CWatch EDR - Remote uninstall not working

Trying to uninstall EDR from remote computer remotely COMODO cWatch EDR Agent COMODO 1.1.262.2. On the end-user computer the are prompted are you sure you want to uninstall and then prompts for Admin password. No password is required to install the software.

Need to remotely uninstall this software from my computers without having to connect to each computer.

The software was pushed from Comodo portal, should be able to uninstall from Comodo portal. If a Special script is required then that script should be provided.

You can utilize this procedure for removing EDR agent that was installed on the endpoints.

@thearcatlantic ,

the subject line should be the topic you have raise above “Forum: CWatch EDR - Remote uninstall not working”

Ok thank you, I found it. Will wait for an update on the issue.

I did not get a chance to uninstall EDR from endpoints. Now EDR V2 has been released and causing more issues. Uninstaller script not working for the new version.

First version of scripted had this error -

COMODO cWatch EDR Agent not installed at Endpoint reg delete HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\COMODO\EDREndpoint /va /f The operation completed successfully. [Error 3] The system cannot find the path specified: 'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\COMODO\\cWatchEDRAgent/*.*'

I edited the script to the new DIR C:\Program Files (x86)\COMODO\EdrAgentV2

V2 script gets this error -
COMODO cWatch EDR Agent not installed at Endpoint reg delete HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\COMODO\EDREndpoint /va /f The operation completed successfully. [Error 5] Access is denied: ‘C:\Program Files (x86)\COMODO\EdrAgentV2\x64\cacert.pem’
