    Hi,

    Access your SEPM console
    >Go to Clients tab
    >Go to the group wherein belong the SEP client you want to reset the password
    >In you Group, go to Policies tab in right pane, (together with Clients, Details and Install Packages)

    >then go to General Settings
    >In General Settings Tab, go to Security Settings and uncheck all the check boxes under the Client Security Settings. This will remove the password protect of the uninstallation of your client..
    >click Ok to finish and save changes
    >Then update your client to received the latest policies you've configured
    >Then if the client successfully received the policy, you can now try to uninstall your SEP client.

    Note: In your Group policies, make sure that the inheritance is disabled to configure any changes on your communication settings and policies.

     

    Regards,

    JM

    If you have access to the SEPM you can do it from the Clients page >> Policies tab >> General Settings >> Security tab
