Remove third party antivirus automatically

Dear team,

I have a lot of PC has antivirus software (Symantec, Kaspersky). And now, we will have a new deployment with ePO 5.10. 

How can it remove existing antivirus automatically?

Hi @DucDinh 

Thank you for posting on the Community.

The KB you found is your answer 🙂 The ENS installer will remove any products listed there. It will look for the uninstall strings of those products and will execute them if found. As a heads up - If there is a problem uninstalling that particular software, you would need to look into the reason for uninstallation failure with the appropriate vendor. We literally just call the uninstall string.
