This article will show you how to remove the Sophos Central Endpoint Client from your Windows system, even if the tamper protection prevents this.

Important: This method of uninstalling the Endpoint Client should only be used if there is no chance to disable tamper protection in the normal way. This may be because you forgot your password or deleted your computer from Sophos Central without uninstalling the Endpoint Client on your computer. How to disable tamper protection in the proper way is explained in this tutorial.

I actually spoke to Sophos about this about a year ago. We had a terminal server that someone had installed it on, and had not recorded the 'Tamper Password'. It was a little much for a server that I was about to retire, but it might help you.
