Clean Up Microsoft Defender for Endpoint Tool Windows Server 2012R2

Hello,

In order to use Defender for Cloud as an anti-virus solution we need to cleanUp old installation of Microsoft Defender for endpoint Tool already installed on our Servers.

We already installed Azure Arc Agent and servers are online on Azure Portal and MDE extension is installed, but each time we uninstall  MS Tool from our Windows server 2012R2 server, tool is reinstalled automatically after a while (while debuging i found event 20 WDATPOnboarding) .

Do you have an idea how to stop the automatic installation of this tool in order to reduce ressource consumption please.

Regards,

Hajer
