This task will uninstall ESET Management Agent from selected target devices.

|  | Uninstalling the ESET Management Agent removes the device from ESET PROTECT On-Prem management: •ESET security application may keep some settings after uninstalling the ESET Management Agent. •If the ESET Management Agent is password-protected, you must provide the password to uninstall, repair or upgrade (with changes) the Agent. We recommend that you reset some settings that you do not want to keep (for example, password protection) to default settings using a policy before the device is removed from management. •All tasks running on the Agent will stop. The Web Console may not show accurate task statuses (Running, Finished, Failed) due to replication. •After uninstalling the Agent, you can manage your security application with EGUI or eShell.
