Dos net localgroup /delete

To your action script.

Is there an uninstaller? Seems like you should run an uninstaller first, and then do any cleanup after only if needed.

There should be an uninstaller for this program, and you can run the uninstaller through a fixlet.

You shouldn’t uninstall a program through BigFix by deleting all traces of it manually. You should always start by running the uninstaller on the command line through BigFix.

Is there documentation on how to uninstall the itm5 agent from the command line?

Being able to do this through BigFix typically has more to do with figuring out how to do it on the command line in general and less about how to do it through BigFix.

I don’t know much about the itm5 agent, so I’d need to see some documentation, or you could provide the uninstallstring and binary.

Link to uninstall instructions for ITM, not sure if this is the right version of ITM.

Also a link to creating a silent install/uninstall file on Windows.

Does any of this seem like the product you are uninstalling?

That is to uninstall ITM6. ITM5 was a completely different product.
