System: Windows Server 2016

Sysmon 15.5

I have tried multiple suggestions from other threads. Nothing worked. I still can't uninstall it. I still get the access denied error.

The service can't even be started either > access denied.

Yes I am using elevated privs with an admin account.

Has anyone found a solution for this?

    Hello,

    I apologize as this subject may extend beyond my primary focus, under product Windows Server / User experience, we specifically addressing remote desktop and printing issues.

    I did come across some references that might be useful, and I hope they're new to you:

    Sysmon Uninstall successful but leaving locked executable - Microsoft Q&A

    Sysmon: How to install, upgrade, and uninstall - James' Pereductions (jamesgibbins.com)

    Note: Since the websites are not hosted by Microsoft, the links may change without notice. Microsoft does not guarantee the accuracy of this information. 

    If these resources don’t provide a solution, another option would be to post your query on the Questions - Microsoft Q&A..

    Your understanding and cooperation are appreciated!

    Best regards,

    Karlie
