Thanks !

First why use a batch file for this?
Secondly, are you computer x64 and the batch file running as x86?

Great timing. I was just asked to remove SCEP from our environment.
I was going to use the batch file method as described here:

How to Uninstall SCEP Client using SCCM 2012 R2

How to uninstall SCEP Client using SCCM 2012 R2,Uninstall endpoint protection client using sccm,SCEP client,uninstall SCEP Client using SCCM

www.prajwaldesai.com

However, looking at the c:\windows\ccmsetup folder on my latest test machine, the file scepinstall.exe no longer exists. At least not in that directory.

My client wants to uninstall it only through sccm only.

Also i have ran same bat file manually and it worked successfully.

Neither of these answers my questions.

 

[Sam Banford]

Neither of these answers my questions.

He's asking because (well for the second question anyway) if the batch file is being executed in 32-bit the environment is different than what you see when doing it manually which is probably in 64-bit. Things like the env vars for %ProgramFiles% and the registry key for WOW6432Node all present differently. If this is the case you need to force the batch to rerun itself using the cmd.exe in c:\windows\sysnative

If you want to see what the batch sees while running, open a command console using c:\windows\syswow64\cmd.exe

Garth, I can't answer for Rohit. However, Can I build on your response and ask,' if not the batch file method, is there a better way to remove SCEP from all of my clients?' I'll create a separate post if this question will muddy the waters too much.

Fatal error 0x87d01106 enountered for program SCEP Uninstall. This program will not retry. execmgr 0x87d01106 = Failed to verify the executable file is valid or to construct the associated command line.

Can you try creating the package again > deploy and test it ?.

Here are two answers for you, the first one, I haven't tried before, so YMWV.
Have you tried just turning off EP in the Client setting, does that remove EP from the computer?
Assuming Rohit command line is right, why not just use the command line directly. aka don't wrap the command line in a batch file. C:\Windows\ccmsetup\scepinstall.exe /u /s

If we disable EP in client setting it will not remove the client.
