Hello everyone!
I have a small question following a bit of a hassle. I work in IT managing a park of about 800 workstations, and we are changing our antivirus system to switch to Eset via a Workstation. The issue is that our old version of Eset Endpoint was installed via GPO on every workstation at startup.
However, the current license we are using is not on the same system, so we are forced to boot each workstation in safe mode to uninstall the old Eset before we can subsequently install the new agent.
I was thinking about a system that could automate the uninstallation through a script or something.
Do you have any ideas?

Hello,
We need to know which product exactly and which version.
I could help you create a script, but I need the content of the registry key corresponding to the ESET installation:
I don’t know much about Powershell, but I’m quite good with .bat
“Artificial intelligence is defined as the opposite of natural stupidity.”

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall

However, I do have an Eset folder as well as CurrentVersion in HKLM\SOFTWARE\ESET\ESET SECURITY\CURRENTVERSION. But no Uninstall folder.
What's in HKLM\SOFTWARE\ESET\ESET SECURITY\CURRENTVERSION?
