Where can I get the uninstall string for the different McAfee products?

[ssedhai]

I know the uninstall string can be found here on the local PC: 

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall

but is there a centralized database or the KB article where it is posted? 

Also, a different version of the same product, for example, Endpoint Security Firewall version 10.5.4.4213 and 10.6.1.1521 will have a different uninstall string? 

Thanks everyone!

Hi @ssedhai,

Sorry I couldn't find any KB/Doc with the requested information.

You're right, uninstall string can be located in the registry.

Which can then be used uninstall using commandline as mentioned in the link below.

@Pravas Thanks for the reply. 

I was not able to locate the registry in the location mentioned in this link. 

https://kc.mcafee.com/corporate/index?page=content&id=KB58231

however, I found a related registry here: 

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall

Do you need correction/update in the KB? 

Thanks!

Hi @ssedhai ,
