DefensX agent will install web browser security extensions automatically. Our agent will deploy advanced protection to all the supported web browsers by default. You can exclude web browsers from the list at your preference. Those will have only essential DNS protection.

        Get-ChildItem -Path $_ | ForEach-Object {
            $properties = Get-ItemProperty $_.PSPath
            if ($properties.PSObject.Properties['DisplayName'] -and $properties.DisplayName -match "DefensX Agent") {
                if ($properties.PSChildName -match '}$') {
                    $properties.PSChildName
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
$DefensXGUID = getDefensXGUID
if ($DefensXGUID) {
  write-host "DefensX Agent found with (GUID $DefensXGUID. Uninstalling..."
  try {
    msiexec /x $DefensXGUID /qn /norestart
