Description

The standard BES Client installation package will list the BES Client in the Windows "Add/Remove Programs" Tool. Any user logged in with sufficient privileges can see and remove the BES Client using "Add/Remove Programs". Use the action below to remove the BES Client entry from the "Add/Remove Programs" list.

Note: After applying this action, Fixlet #326 will become relevant and will allow you to restore the BES Client entry to the "Add/Remove Programs" list.

Note: On BES Client upgrades, the BES Client entry will be automatically restored to the "Add/Remove Programs" list. To prevent this from happening, you can apply this action as a "policy" action.
