    Article summary

    To uninstall the MFA client, you can do so quickly and easily from the Programs and Features page in the Control Panel. At times, this method is not always effective, leaving certain assemblies behind, later causing issues for future MFA client installations. The client uninstallation tool can help remove anything left behind or even be used to uninstall the client from afar.

    The following instructions are for our MFA client-specific uninstallation script. This tool can also be run after an initial Windows uninstallation.


    1. Download the uninstaller ZIP file.

    2. On the client computer, create a C:\Temp directory if it does not already exist.

    3. Unzip the contents of ClientUninstaller.zip to C:\Temp or move them after unzipping to their current location.

    4. Open CMD or PowerShell as Administrator.

    5. Navigate to C:\Temp.

    6. Enter the file's name and click enter to run the uninstaller.

      The PowerShell version contains Set-ExecutionPolicy lines that should automatically set the permissions to "unrestricted" for the tool to run and automatically reset back to "restricted" when complete.

    7. After the uninstaller has run its course, you will need to restart the computer.
