Please review the below instructions for the manual uninstall process. It is highly recommended that manual uninstallation be tried before using the Symantec Endpoint Protection (SEP) removal tool. Thank you for contacting Symantec Enterprise Support Services.
#REMOVING SYMANTEC ENDPOINT PROTECTION 12.1 WINDOWS 10 PASSWORD#
Here's the email I received from Support, with password and URL removed: Yes, I am ANGRY, maybe not at you, but at this STUPID, MORONIC policy some idiot came up with! I have installed this product on so many thousands of user computers, but I am ready to start looking for another product. I am damn tired of going through the garbage EVERY time I need this. PLEASE start putting it under the File Connect area. We don't NEED your help beyond access to the latest version, unless WE ASK FOR IT. The problem with your, and excuse me, IDIOTIC argument is that virtually EVERYONE here is a freaking professional. I have been a professional IT guy for 18 years, and I am willing to bet that I have been using and supporting Symantec's various versions of anti-virus longer than most Symantec employees. They just give it to me, so it can't be THAT powerful. When a system is screwed up, you making us call is not going to make it any less screwed up, and more to the point, I have NEVER ONCE had anyone actually give me any warnings when I DID CALL to get it. I wish you guys would get it through your heads, we don't care how "powerful" you think it is, WE NEED IT, and we are sick and tired of having to jump through hoops to get it. I also agree that if you need the tool, you need it quickly.įrankly, we have heard that for years, "it is a very powerful one". However, if you just call and they send it to you, it defeats that purpose. That is, in theory, if you can't unistall using add/remove, maybe Symantec may want to find out why. Maybe part of it is that Symantec needs to know when the normal uninstall (add/remove) is not working as they may be having an underlying issue. Other than that, it should be easier to get. I don't think it is as bad as Symantec makes it out to be assuming it is used in the right hands and there is no "other" issue that can cause it to make things worse by missing a few things.

So, in a sense, it can be dangerous when used by the wrong users and also can be dangerous if used in a situation where full rights are not available. My "point" was that those who say that cleanwipe is not a dangerous tool need to realize that this tool needs to stay away from the end user community. Right now, the password to uninstall holds off most of the attempts (including those made by the "big boss") as well as tamper protection. Other users can search the internet and find out about this tool. True, if the tool is under File Connect, that should be an acceptable solution. Executives that can get away with whatever. Well, Kevin, some of our users are what we call "Prima Donnas".

This doesn't require multiple reboots when compared to the previous versions of cleanwipe utility. However, if you want to hold the reboot and do it manually at a later point of time, you can now uncheck Reboot Automatically. A reboot is mandatory to completely remove any of the above products. This is a major change compared to the previous Cleanwipe version.Ĥ. Now, you can see the list of products from which you can choose the required one. Read the license agreement, check I accept the terms in the license agreement and then click Next.ģ.
