When set to Yes, the Endpoint Protection client installs on client com-
puters. This option is available only if Manage Endpoint Protection

When set to No, the Endpoint Protection client will not install on client

Automatically Remove Previously

Installed
When set to Yes, the client installation checks for and uninstalls most
third-party antimalware clients.
The default setting is Yes. The Endpoint Protection client installation
fails if you attempt to install the client on a computer that does not sup-
port the uninstallation of an existing antimalware solution. In this case,
uninstall the existing antimalware solution before you enable Endpoint
Protection.
