  • 1.  Stop SEP remotely

    Posted May 03, 2013 04:42 AM

    Hello,

     

    I'm trying to stop SEP remotely on Win7 computers. Tamper protection is running and a password is needed to stop services via smc.exe

    No way by Services.msc as all is greyed. Impossible to change startup type of the service and kill the process as well (Tamper ON or OFF)

    Psexec smc -stop does not work (Tamper ON or OFF) because the password option seems to not be possible remotely

    How to do that ?

     

    Thanks in advance,

    Regards
