Uninstall Symantec Endpoint Protection From My Laptop.

Asked By kianaudez 0 points N/A Posted on - 06/27/2016

Hey everyone,

I have got a laptop from my college which has Symantec Endpoint Protection installed on it. Symantec has a feature called DLP (Data Loss Prevention) which blocks any flash drive that I connect.

Can anybody tell me how can I uninstall Symantec Endpoint Protection from my laptop?
