Instructions for uninstalling the G DATA Agent on Linux
There are two different ways to remove the G DATA Agent from a Linux system. We recommend uninstalling via the G DATA Web-Portal.
Uninstalling via the G DATA Web-Portal
The easiest way to uninstall an G DATA Agent is to initiate the uninstallation via the G DATA Web-Portal. If you choose a different method, you require an uninstall token. You can obtain it from our G DATA Security Operations Team.
