@ferullo, I opened up a ticket but never heard back.

Are you able to speak with me directly?

Did you ever receive a response to this Greg?

The company I work for has Endgame Security (esensor) installed on a few remaining legacy machines and we are unable to remove this without formatting the machines.

A contractor installed the product on the machines, but did not provide any uninstall instructions or API key to be able to uninstall the product.

Any ideas?
