Replace Sophos with Windows Defender on Intune managed devices
We are replacing Sophos Endpoint Protection with Windows Defender, and I'd like to ask if anybody has experience in doing so and is willing to share it. a) removing Sophos from Windows 10 devices...
What are you currently doing with Sophos? (A/V? EDR? Disk Enryption?)
Are the devices all Intune Enrolled yet?

- Do you currently have a script to uninstall it? You will need a silent way to uninstall it. Once you have that you can leverage the PowerShell script method in Intune.
- I have found a batch file, but no PowerShell script to silent uninstall
- if its a simple batch file you could always convert it to PowerShell. Also, you could leverage a Win32 app and call the batch file, you'll simply need something like a reg key on the machine to use as a detection method. Feel free to post the batch file here on the forum.
