Uninstalling Sophos

Sophos recommended instructions

Create a batch file

Prior to uninstalling the endpoint components, you should stop the Sophos AutoUpdate Service to prevent a potential update of the endpoint software during the removal.  A command line such as the following can be used.

net stop "Sophos AutoUpdate Service"

The order in which the endpoint components are removed is important.  Therefore reorder your uninstall strings (that you extracted from the registry editor) as shown below.
