Can I uninstall clients from the Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager Console?
No. You cannot remotely uninstall Symantec Endpoint Protection clients from the Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager console. You can use Altiris or third party solutions such as SMS to uninstall clients remotely.


Best Regards.

You may use 'SEPUninstaller' in SEP CD2 to uninstall SEP clients remotely, as there is no option to uninstall SEP in the SEPM.

To run a scan on any computer or a group, you can right click on it and select 'Run command on Clients/Group' and may select 'Scan' or 'Update contact and scan'.
Or you may schedule a scan in Antivirus and Antispyware Protection Policy under 'Adminstrator Defined scans'.

There is a directory at- " \Symantec_Endpoint_Protection_11.0.5_AllWin_EN_CD2\Tools\NoSupport\CompetitiveUninstall\SEPUninstaller". The readme.txt inside details how to use the tool to remove SEP remotely using the 'Find Unmanaged Computers' tool in the SEPM.
