When uninstalling the Safend Protector client in a large environment, a method for performing mass un-installation is required.
Below you will find instructions for executing such a method, using a GPO linked to a startup script which uninstalls the protector.Ursache
Lösung
Open Notepad and enter the following text:
msiexec.exe /x "\Servername\Path\SafendProtectorClient.msi" /qn UNINSTALL_PASSWORD=Password1
Where instead of ServernamePath you enter the machine name and path to the SafendProtectorClient.msi file used for the installation, and instead of Password1 you enter the uninstall password defined for the client.
Save this file as a .bat file.
In Active Directory, go to the relevant OU, click properties and create and link a new GPO which will contain the uninstall script.
Once the GPO is created within the OU, right click it and select edit.
In the Group Policy Management menu, go to "Computer configuration->Windows Settings->Scripts"
Double click the startup script and select Add and Browse. This should open the policy's Startup folder from within the domain controller.
Copy the script file to this location and click OK.
Once this is done, restart the relevant machines in order for the startup script to run and remove Safend's Clients from them.
