Would it be possible to go about it a different angle?  If there are not too many models just create a system image without it? More on reddit.com

I’ve seen this asked before but wondering if anyone has a way of doing this?

Dell Optimizer has caused us no end of issues for RDP, VPN, and wireless connections.

I even asked Dell support directly, opening a case with their paid support team. I’ve pasted their response below. I’m sure there must be a way but it’s beyond me (and seemingly Dell) so far.

We hope you are doing well

We tried to reach you regarding the case that you have raised- 149711739

Unfortunately we couldn’t find any batch file for the removal of the dell optimizer from multiple systems

It has to be done manually from the apps and feature option

We apologize for the inconvenience that we have caused We would process the refund for the amount as the issue will not be resolved

Please let us know if we can help you anything else

r/sysadmin on Reddit: Uninstall Dell Optimizer command
November 24, 2022 -

All of Dell's documentation says that uninstalling Dell Optimizer is as simple as "DellOptimizer.exe /remove" but whenever I try to run that I get the error that DellOptimizer.exe is not recognized as an internal or external command. I did also try running the command from the Optimizer program files folder. Am I missing something?

Tried using wmic to do it but that doesn't seem to recognize the "Dell Optimizer Service" part and leaves that installed.

Edit: Correction, when I use the full path to the programs file folder I get the error "Windows Service Start Failure" saying that a Windows service must first be installed using installutl.exe and then started with the ServerExplorer or the net start command.
