We are trying to setup a Malwarebytes test group. I'd like to remove the "consumer" version before running the MBEndpoint Agent. Is there a script for remotely removing an app ?
Thanks

I dont have malware bytes but I'm gathering they don't provide an uninstaller?
If thats the case I suggest getting a test machine without the consumer version of MalwareBytes, and take a snapshot of its installation using composer. Then, make a script that removes everything that is added & deploy that script in a policy.

They have provided an installer which installs an invisible version of the application. The only thing the end user sees is a menu bar icon that allows them to do an instant scan.
Ideally there would be 2 scripts: one to detect and remove the consumer version and a 2nd to approve the extension attribute.

I seem to remember some script hidden in the app bundle for uninstalling...I’ll double check

I just found an uninstaller on their site. Time to test

make a regular sudo rm -rf script, use App Cleaner to identified all files to remove.
