- You could "fake" the uninstall command as it is not required, just enter uninstall.cmd
As detection rule you could add an extra command to the install script to create an additional file something like this:
New-Item -Path "c:\" -Name "temp" -ItemType "directory" -force
$path = "c:\temp"
New-Item -path $path -name "removeav.txt" -ItemType file -force
I will test the locally first before upload! thank you. If this does work locally for upload for intune what would the uninstall command be? and the detection rule? Any ideas?

- Hi AB21805. did you get it to work? Check the blog again..it has an update 😉
Here's what I did:
step 1: IntuneWinAppUtil.exe -c C:\temp\RemoveMcAfee\MCPR -s mccleanup.exe -o C:\temp\RemoveMcAfee\McAfeeSilentUninstall
I'm wrapping the complete MCPR folder which also includes Silent_uninstall.bat as documented in the blog above.
STEP 2: Upload mccleanup.intunewin to Intune
install and uninstall command are Silent_uninstall.bat
You need to add an extra requirement rule for installation: I added the reg key as documented
I also added the custom detection rule. Also a reg key
Wait for it to install and remove McAfee. This can take a while. For me when testing it uninstalled McAfee completely after about an hour.
Reboot and Windows Defender takes over again.
Hope this helps..Oktay SariDuda las reglas de requerimiento y reglas de deteccion siguen siendo HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \SOFTWARE\McAfee ? Y cual es la clave de registro que mencionas? Gracias.
