I have not been able to get the remote uninstall feature to work, and that is when all the WMI tests are passing. I have only tested it on an XP machine however, and we use kaspersky here as well, but not the firewall component. I did not receive any error messages that the uninstall failed. That feature has been very important to me so I have not said anything before. Sorry I am not any real help on this issue.

I do know that to get the WMI scanning to work I applied these firewall rules, not all of them are specific to lansweeper but I believe that last 3 or 4 are.

netsh firewall set service REMOTEDESKTOP ENABLE ALL
netsh firewall set service FILEANDPRINT ENABLE ALL
netsh firewall set service RemoteAdmin enable
call netsh firewall add portopening protocol=tcp port=135 name=DCOM_TCP135
call netsh firewall add allowedprogram program=%windir%\system32\wbem\unsecapp.exe name=WMI
call netsh firewall add allowedprogram program=%windir%\system32\dllhost.exe name=Dllhost

Do you get this with an MSI package or another installer?
Non msi packages will probably need extra parameters to uninstall silently (depending on the vendor)

I today tried connecting without the kaspersky firewall (i.e. kaspersky AV completely off) still getting the same error.

Hi, I followed that, We have turned Windows Firewall off on all machines and use Kaspersky Antivirus. I have opened TCP and UDP 135 and added "%windir%\system32\wbem\unsecapp.exe name=WMI" and "%windir%\system32\dllhost.exe name=Dllhost" to the trusted Zone.

Did you try with disabling Kaspersky firewall completely?
How many workstations are affected by this problem.
