Removing the McAfee Agent
After deleting an agent, the system is deleted from the System Tree and the agent is removed during
the next agent‑server communication.
Keep in mind that if point‑products still reside on systems after attempting to remove the agent, the
agent continues to run unmanaged in updater mode in order to maintain those point‑products.
You cannot remove the agent using the Product Deployment task, which can remove products such as
VirusScan Enterprise.
