    Good Day,

    We are Running SCE 2010 RTM.  Every so often we have a compter that crashes when that happens the client that is in the administration space is grayed out.  When I click on it and then go agent managed and choose delete it can't do it.  This has happened a few times and I have a few stay clients that I just can't do anything with.

    How do I remove it from the SCE?

    Thanks

    Adam Raff

    Thanks for responding,

    You miss my point the computer that the agent is on is no longer working so I cannot uninstal the agent and that fails because the system cannot login to the computer.

    It seems that there is a delete here which I could not find before, I assume this is if you want to just delete the computer from Essentials and the computer is NO longer available to uninstall the agent.

    Hello Adam,

    If any client just disappears and you cannot uninstall the agent on the managed computer, you just need to delete it from the SCE console:  

    You can delete the clients in Administration space -> Agent managed. Right-click the agent and choose Delete.

    After the procedure, the client will not shown on the SCE console.

    Thanks,

    Yog Li
