Remove Sophos Anti-Virus
Remove Sophos Anti-Virus is an uninstaller utility bundled with Sophos Endpoint Protection for Mac. It is used to cleanly remove the Sophos antivirus security software and its associated system components from a Mac. This tool is not a standalone application but rather a helper component that assists users in completely uninstalling Sophos when they no longer need the antivirus protection or wish to switch to a different security solution.

1 suggestionThis is a helper utility, not a standalone application. It is bundled with Sophos Endpoint Protection and exists solely to uninstall Sophos from your Mac. There is nothing to update separately — the uninstaller works in conjunction with the main Sophos Endpoint Protection product. If you need to remove Sophos from your Mac, simply run this utility; if you wish to update Sophos Endpoint Protection itself to a native Apple Silicon build, contact Sophos directly or check your organisation's endpoint management portal, as Sophos ships native builds for M-series Macs. The uninstaller tool will work under Rosetta 2 for now, but given Apple is removing Rosetta in macOS 28 (September 2028), ensure you update Sophos Endpoint Protection to a current native build if you plan to keep it installed beyond that date.
