Can I remove DameWare remotely? Or with a GPO?

I'm looking for a process that would help me uninstall the program either remotely or via GPO when a user logs in

Have you tried MSIEXEC /X {ProductID}

combine that with PSEXEC and you get remote capabilities

I haven't tried this method.

How would I go about getting the product ID?

You can either extract it from the MSI directly, or search the registry in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstaller.

Detailed instructions for both of these methodologies are available from several sources via a web search.

If you have Patch Manager, you can also use the Computer Explorer -> Installed Software tool to just query for it.

Thanks so much for providing that. I'm going to install Dameware on a test machine and just to run the uninstaller. My goal is to create a script when a user logs in, run the MSIEXEC /X {ProductID} command to remove.

Here's a simple script to kill your installed product without using the SGUID, instead used the actual MSI file that was used to install the software.

The %MYDIR% tells the msiexec to use the current SOURCE LOCATION where the MSI file is located.

Start /wait is really not needed but if your script is used to uninstall and install a new version of software this is where you would tell the script remove the first installed program and wait until your done then start to install the new software

@echo off

::

SET MYDIR=%~dp0

:: REMOVE OLDER VERSION OF SOFTWARE

start /wait msiexec /x "%mydir%DRS10x.msi" /qb

::

:: start to install the new version of the software when you done removing the old copy.

start /wait msiexec /x "%mydir%THE_NEW_VERSION.msi" /qb APPDIR="C:\Program Files (x86)\SolarWinds\DameWare Remote Support\" reboot=reallysuppress SILENT=yes SA_KEY=XXX-XXX-XXX-XXX-XXX  SA_EMAIL=YOU-EMAIL@BLABLA.COM
