    One way is to use s/w distribution tool. Do you have software distribution tool available in your organisation?

    In that you can uninstall old version and then install the new version- 11.

    DO you want to change the uninstallation password?

    Hi Kishor,

     

    You can use Altiris to manage DLP Agents.

    Please refer the below links for more details:

    https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/articles/installing-dlp-endpoint-agent-altiris

    https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/articles/dlp-and-altiris-integrated-component

    OR...

     

    You can use any Symantec Management platform to manage any types of Syamntec softwares

     

    OR....

     

    In a harder Way you can create a script to perform following tasks..(This is the last option to try out....)

    • Stop/remove the services from Windows.
    • Then you could remove the directory,
    • Then you could reinstall the agent .( Which is optional in your case )
    • the new configuration should overwrite all registry keys.
    • You can use the command "sc delete edpa && sc delete wdp"

     

    Hope this help you!!
