How to force remove McAfee 8.7 and management agent
by chadeldridge on Feb.22, 2010, under Tech
For some reason once McAfee is controlled by the EPO agent it becomes very difficult to totally uninstall. For those of you who have contacted me about this, here is your manual force removal guide. It is basically just 2 steps but if the software fails to uninstall gracefully from Add / Remove Programs, this will for sure work.
1. Remove the agent forcefully:
"c:\program files\mcafee\common framework\frminst.exe" /forceuninstall /silent
2. Remove the actual McAfee product via its GUID:
msiexec /x {147BCE03-C0F1-4C9F-8157-6A89B6D2D973} /qn
Please let me know if that does not clear up your issue.
