Hi, I'm looking for a script or uninstaller for removing all Jamf components. My company made a decision to move to Intune, and we took the non-best practice route of manually moving devices (best practice is to completely reimage).

Because of this the devices have Jamf residuals on them. We're simply looking to clean up after and remove any unlicensed elements as part of good due diligence.

I did find one post suggesting use of a third-party uninstaller. Perhaps this is best over trying to come up with a script?

This doc tells you everything Jamf installs on a device. Though when you remove the Jamf Framework most of this stuff is automatically removed. Writing a script looping through sudo rm -rf should not take to much time, but removing the MDM profile may be tricky for a script if its flagged to be non-user moveable as only MDM could remove it in that case.

@factory00 As @AJPinto references removing the Jamf Pro MDM Profile isn't something you can simply do a "sudo rm" on, but if you still have access to your Jamf Pro console you can use the "Remove MDM Profile" Management Command available when viewing the Management tab for a computer record in your Jamf Pro console. Doing that is also necessary to remove any other Configuration Profiles that Jamf Pro has installed.
