How to uninstall the Privilege Manager client? (4371948)

If you are using the Client Deployment Settings GPO to perform the installation of the Privilege Manager client then you will need to remove the computer objects from that Client installation GPO first so the client is not reinstalled again.

Note: The Privilege Manager console and client must be using the same version.

Option 1:
To uninstall using a Client Deployment Settings GPO:

3. Click Next.

4. Define the Server.

5. Click Browse to locate a Server through Active Directory if required.

6. Click Test to verify the connection of the selected Server to the ScriptLogic PA Reporting Service. If the test fails, check to see if there are network or firewall problems.

7. Click the Clear the server name link if you want to configure another Server. The displayed service remains installed.

8. Click Next to use Validation Logic to target the settings to specific client computers within the GPO, or click Finish to save your settings and quit.
