Powershell script for XDR agent removal?

L3 Networker

Would anyone happen to have an example of a powershell script that'll assist in removing the XDR agent? Thanks ahead of time.

One option would be to request the XDR Cleaner Tool from support and use:

 

REM to disable agent protect and remove agent with XDRAgentcleaner
@echo off
echo Password123|"%ProgramFiles%\Palo Alto Networks\Traps\cytool.exe" protect disable
REM use xdrcleaner note the password is in clear txt
xdragentcleaner.exe --silient --password Password123 --log c:\remove.log

Most Anti virus has an anti tamper password. Call the vendor if it's not working. There's probably registry keys and possibly other system files to hook the kernel.
