- @noahtalerman: For Windows, I think we want to squeeze turning off MDM and uninstalling fleetd into one script. - Why? Because Fleet automatically turns on Windows MDM, two scripts means Fleet could beat the IT admin and turn MDM back on before they uninstall fleetd. <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **New Features** * Windows fleetd uninstall now proactively detects and disables MDM enrollment before removal to help ensure a cleaner device unenrollment. * **Bug Fixes** * Improved uninstall error reporting by surfacing the underlying failure message and exiting with a clear non-zero code. * **Chores** * Updated fleet testing and workstation configurations: removed the Windows uninstall/MDM-related steps from QA and workstation controls, and added new Windows security/setup scripts plus additional cross-platform post-install and extension installation tasks. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> --------- Co-authored-by: Steven Palmesano <3100993+spalmesano0@users.noreply.github.com>

How to uninstall Fleet's agent (fleetd)
You can uninstall fleetd directly on a device or remotely through Fleet.
Uninstall fleetd on macOS
To remove fleetd from a Mac:
- Download the macOS uninstall script.
- Open the Terminal app.
- Navigate to where you saved the script:
cd /path/to/your/script - Make the script executable:
chmod +x uninstall-fleetd-macos.sh - Run the script:
sudo ./uninstall-fleetd-macos.sh
Uninstall fleetd on Windows
To remove fleetd from a Windows device:
- Download the Windows uninstall script. This script turns off MDM and uninstalls fleetd.
- Open PowerShell as administrator (right-click and select Run as administrator).
- Navigate to where you saved the script:
cd C:\path\to\your\script - Run the script:
.\uninstall-fleetd-windows.ps1
Note: When running unsigned PowerShell scripts, you are likely to receive a warning, and will need to adjust the Execution Policy. One example is:
Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process. This will bypass all warnings and prompts for the current PowerShell session.
