For a long time the standard was, contact your S1 support and receive a removal tool. The sweeper can still be found, but only old versions among rare people that held onto it, and it does not always work. This works sometimes:
SentinelOneInstaller_windows_64bit_v22_2_4_558.exe --clean_only --dont_preserve_config_dir --dont_preserve_agent_uid -t xyzpdqxyzpdq
You’ll want the latest .exe, not the above version. And if this is not an agent from your own console, in the place of xyzpdqxyzpdq, try “1”, or omit the -t … altogether. Sometimes works outside of safe mode, sometimes works inside.

SentinelOne
It’s built into most OEM installs of Windows 10 and 11, and can often be installed. On server builds it’s touch and go.
To see if you have it, try winget list
from CMD or Powershell.
One good way to test it, is to install Microsoft .NET framework (SDK) 6, thus, from administrative Powershell:
winget install --id Microsoft.DotNet.Runtime.6 --silent --accept-source-agreements
I learned just now that if you add other seemingly valuable options to the one above, e.g., --scope machine
, at least while running as SYSTEM, it will fail citing package not found. So you’ll want to test carefully.
Here’s one proven just now for 7zip (there’s a “search” option in winget to get the ID):
winget install --exact --id 7zip.7zip --accept-package-agreements --silent --scope machine
Here’s one for Google Chrome, needs a bit of extra:
winget.exe install --exact --id Google.Chrome --silent --accept-package-agreements --accept-source-agreements --scope machine
If you do want to use it from the SYSTEM account, in scripting, it gets interesting. You’ll want to first run the below, and then winget will run as expected.
# Function to find the path to winget.exe
function Find-WinGet-Path {
# Get the WinGet path (for use when running in SYSTEM context).
$WinGetPathToResolve = Join-Path -Path $ENV:ProgramFiles -ChildPath 'WindowsApps\Microsoft.DesktopAppInstaller_*_*__8wekyb3d8bbwe'
$ResolveWinGetPath = Resolve-Path -Path $WinGetPathToResolve | Sort-Object {

$arrPath = $env:Path -split ';' | Where-Object {$_ -notMatch

$env:Path = ($arrPath + $addPath) -join ';'
} else {
Throw "'$addPath' is not a valid path."

Installing is even more interesting. There is a module in PSGallery called winget-install which works well in console, but not scripting. Below is one that works well in scripting, though it cannot be pasted interactively:

So we have a PC that is Azure-joined, not AD, not standalone. Domain admin is obvious. And we can set PC-local admin using domain admin. But how do we give an Azure user local admin rights? Well, the simplest is in administrative Powershell:
net localgroup Administrators /add "AzureAD\userupn@domain.com"
where userupn@domain.com is the UPN of the user, the user’s login into Azure/365. Note that the text AzureAD
is not the domain name, it is literal characters as you see it here. In other words, a breakage of historical syntax!

Sometimes Windows’ relationship with 365, or a user’s profile, or just a user on a PC or terminal server, will not log into 365. This appears to be the result of corruption of cached credentials.
The most straightforward way is probably to nuke all User/Windows/Azure relationship and recreate. As written, this would probably be very bad on a terminal server, because it will nuke the relationship for all users and all profiles. So far, no per-user commands identified.:
Remove 365 accounts from “Access Work and School”, then run these:
dsregcmd /debug /cleanupaccounts
dsregcmd /debug /leave
from administrative CMD, and also from SYSTEM (paexec or psexec can do this), then reboot, then remove from Access Work and School if still there, then set up user relationship(s) again.
But today we have a report that dsregcmd /status did something, unknown, which fixed one terminal server user. Not sure what. Next time I plan to run many tests with this info:
ss64.com/nt/dsregcmd.html
And if you see error CAA5021, do this:
Search for Manage user certificates in the search bar and open it from Best match. Then navigate to Current User\Personal\Certificates and make sure the MS-Organization-Access and MS-Organization-P2P-Access entries are deleted.
No reboot needed for that last.
