How to manually uninstall LeanSentry agent services

If you need to uninstall LeanSentry on your server, we recommend using the add/remove programs dialog and uninstalling the "LeanSentry Monitoring service" and "LeanSentry Agent service" items.

To uninstall LeanSentry services manually

If for some reason, you are unable to uninstall the LeanSentry services using the regular add/remove programs approach, you can also manually remove them using the commands below. However, this option should almost never be necessary so please always use the regular uninstallation process first.

(Note: you must run all commands below from an elevated command prompt started with the "As Administrator" option)
