Hi, I must install Forticlient (to some reasons (coherence with Fortigate installed, use of VPN SSL, ...))

When i try to deploy v6.4 (or others versions below (6, 5.6,..)) error message appears each time  which tells an other AV (Kaspersky) however right uninstalled.

Is exist a way to bypass this check by forti setup or correct this one or to investigate where forticlient find a trace of Kaspersky product, no references in registry/appdata/... CCleaner or others tools don't find anything ... It must be exist a file (dll or..) somewhere but where... ?

How corect this problem ?

Thank's for helping

Frederic

Use this command on target computer to show list of AV products:

wmic /namespace:\\root\SecurityCenter2 PATH AntiVirusProduct get *

Use this command on target computer to remove AV information from system:

wmic /namespace:\\root\SecurityCenter2 PATH AntiVirusProduct WHERE instanceGuid='{XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX}' DELETE
