I have a Windows VM hosted in Azure where i have many websites (IIS) and yesterday i installed Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 SP1 to be secure. Everything went normal during the process and after it finished and autostarted, like you may gessed, the firewall blocked me.

I managed to have access to the server using powershell but nothing worked:

  • msiexec /x {7A4192A1-84C4-4E90-A31B-B4847CA8E23A} /qn (there is a process - msiexec - but avp is still alive)
  • avp.com stop firewall (Error: Command unavailable due to password protection disabled)
  • trying to stop the AVP service

If anybody have a suggestion i'll be more than grateful. As for now, the websites are OK but better now than later.

    I would just roll back to the snapshot I created of the Virtual Machine before the software was installed.

Please try to removing the Kaspersky by WMIC.

Tpye "product get name" to get the name of the installed Kaspersky.

Then use "product where name=”name of program” call uninstall" to remove the Kaspersky.

Here is a good article about how to use WMIC to uninstall the packages on Windows.

If it still doesn't work, please check if Kaspersky has been removed successfully. And also, please check if the Windows firewall has been modified. If yes, just use PowerShell command to add an inbound rule to allow TCP 3389.

  • The suggested command isn't applicable to the software that should be removed

  • @etshei You're correct. Sorry about the misleading information, I've updated my answer. Also, this method has been verified in my lab. Sep 19, 2016 at 10:16
  • @Ramhound Thanks for the reminding and I have updated my answer. Sep 19, 2016 at 10:16
  • @StevenLee Thanks a lot, it worked like a charm. the command Get-WmiObject Win32_Product gets the packages i used $app = Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Product -Filter "Name = 'Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 for Windows'" then $app.Uninstall() to uninstall
