Remove-McAfeeSoftware

Description

Removes all McAfee products from an endpoint.

Requirements

MCPR extracted files located at https://file.provaltech.com/repo/tools/mcafeeremoval.zip.
The license code needed for the uninstaller to run changes dynamically each time the tool is updated. Thus, a copy of the tool is being downloaded from the ProVal repository.

Usage

Runs McAfee's publicly available Removal Tool with parameters to remove all products.

Note: The removal parameters are not currently documented, so it is not feasible to pick and choose which products to remove.
