Uninstall Malwarebytes Using PDQ Deploy w/ MB Clean

[Saraph]

Hello! Currently I'm trying to get PDQ working to run the mb-clean tool (mb-clean-3.1.0.1031.exe) and I keep running into various unknown errors that don't really give me a good path towards resolution. I was wondering if anyone else had successfully set up a way to use an app to mass uninstall MB.

 

Let me know, thank you!

Ok, looks like it's working! I have everything running just fine except for the /norestart switch. That doesn't seem to stop it from restarting.

What was your solution?  I'm looking to do the same thing, I've got it to partially remove but the app still shows up in Add Remove Programs.

There is no /noreboot switch, the switch is /silentnoreboot

You need to restart the machine after cleaning for the add/remove entry to be removed.
