    Hi,

      We are facing problem while trying to uninstall SEP client from one PC. It hangs at a place where it displays "Gathering required information" and does not proceed ahead. Please suggest.

     

     

    Thanks

    Hi,

    The release of 12.1 RU2 included an updated CleanWipe utility & now it works/performs much better.
