Description

The Remove-CMAntiMalwarePolicy cmdlet removes an antimalware policy for endpoint protection from Configuration Manager.

When you create an antimalware policy for endpoint protection and deploy it to a collection of client computers, this antimalware policy overrides the default antimalware policy. When you remove an antimalware policy for endpoint protection, Configuration Manager applies the policy with the next highest priority. If no other custom policies exist, then it applies the default antimalware policy.

Note

Run Configuration Manager cmdlets from the Configuration Manager site drive, for example PS XYZ:\>. For more information, see getting started.

Examples

Example 1: Remove an antimalware policy by using ID

This command removes the antimalware policy that has the ID 16777217.

Remove-CMAntiMalwarePolicy -Id "16777217"

Example 2: Remove an antimalware policy by using a wildcard character

This command removes all antimalware policies that have a name that begins with the letter D.

Remove-CMAntiMalwarePolicy -Name "D*"

Example 3: Remove an antimalware policy by using object variable

The first command gets an antimalware policy object that has the ID 16777217 and stores it in the $AMPobj variable.

The second command removes the antimalware policy stored in the variable.

$AMPobj = Get-CMAntiMalwarePolicy -Id "16777217"
Remove-CMAntiMalwarePolicy -InputObject $AMPobj -Force
