Hi @TilenG ,

 

You can use the cytool utility. You should be able to find it under 'C:\Program Files\Palo Alto Networks\Traps\cytool.exe'.

 

Type the following command to disable Anti-tampering:
cytool protect disable

It will ask for the password

 

This allows you to stop services, uninstall or do whatever you need to do.
