We use Windows 10 OOBE with Intune, and for the like of me I can not uninstall McAfee remotely using a script.

In short the details are below

We use microsoft intune to enroll our devices and i am trying to create a script to remove McAfee Security that comes preinstall with dell laptops and haven’t been successful.

I have created like7 different scripts and none have been successful, is there are way to remove McAfee Security without going to each device and do this manually?

Two ways to uninstall McAfee and remove all it's components:

Revo Uninstaller (free version) is one most powerful uninstaller. Revo will uninstall McAfee and delete all the leftover McAfee registry.

It might ultimately be easier to build and deploy a clean Windows 10 image completely without McAfee on it. It's not particularly easy to rid systems of the invasive McAfee (or Norton, etc.) security suites once they've been installed.

You could use IObit uninstaller. In fact, any uninstaller application would do the job for you. This software would remove all the Norton or McAfee bloat from your system. I hope this helps!
