Scripted Uninstall of Sophos

packman73

Looking for a scripted uninstall of Sophos.  We have over 2000 endpoints at 420+ remote locations which are mainly POS systems running XP or Windows 7.  We can't take control of these systems to manually uninstall Sophos if problems arise (and they have).  I've talked to Sophos support about this and they don't have an uninstall script for Sophos 10.0 from what I've been told.  

I've found all the MSIEXEC uninstall strings within the registry but running those remotely via PsExec does not work, not sure why.

I find it interesting that as good as Sophos is of uninstalling ever other major AV/EPP product on the market to install their product on an end-point, they offer no means (other than touch each endpoint manually) to uninstall their own product.

If anyone has any information that would help us, that would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

    I had the clients running on 9.5 that worked fine. When i installed 10 it gave the errors.

    Last night 9.5 update to 10 so since today i have al the errors. Its annoying that the users see get the installation failed message every 10 min.

    If i use CC cleaner that it works fine but im want to do this remotely.
