PowerShell script to forcefully remove Webroot SecureAnywhere. It is recommended to run the script twice, with a reboot after the first run. Maintenance Note - https://gist.github.com/mark05e/0a04a54c1e8489c770bd91e4910d7df9

Thanks for the script. Though it does get rid of some of Webroot, it has been obsoleted by Webroot, unfortunately.

This link on the webroot site has links to two small removal utilities you can download and run to get rid of Webroot for good. This is the best/fastest solution.

The first is called CleanWDF.exe. Run it.
The second is called WRUpgradeTool.exe. Run it. Don't worry, it is a removal tool, and won't upgrade/install anything. I don't know why it is misnamed so.

Worked. Ran script as system through our RMM agent to new client. Also worked when running through powershell on individual user device

Thanks for the script. There is one more folder C:\Program Files\Common Files\Webroot

The Webroot Tool doesn't work.
