Can't Remove FortiClient - Profile Bricked Laptop?

Thankfully I did this on a brand new laptop that isn't an issue if I need to reset it, but I believe I may have inadvertently bricked it by creating a "block all" EMS profile. 

The idea I had in mind was to set a default EMS profile that would make it painfully obvious when a newly domain joined PC is added and needs to be placed in the correct EMS location.  I have different profiles for different departments, laptops, etc.  Nothing should be left in the "Computers" OU which is the default location for newly joined PCs.  I also have FortiClient deployed automatically through WSUS so a newly joined PC will automatically download FortiClient, and then pull the EMS profile from that "Computers" OU.  Until the PC is manually placed in its correct EMS location I want it to have a default profile that will essentially block all internet & network traffic.  

So the problem is that I assumed, (bad idea), that after enabling this on my laptop for testing the laptop would still be able to connect with EMS in case I needed to revert these settings.  The problem is that the profile is blocking everything, including communication to the EMS server.  I've already removed the "Block All" profile, even tried to exclude this laptop from being managed, but because the laptop cannot connect to EMS it doesn't know to update it's profile.

So is there any possible way to uninstall FortiClient in this type of a scenario?  I've even tried going through safe mode, but the uninstallation is grayed out....because of the profile setting of course :)
