The easiest approach is to use Windows’ in-built uninstaller. It’s simple; go to Control Panel > Programs and Features scroll down the list until you find Forticlient right click it and hit Uninstall. This will get rid of the main package but if you don’t clean up the rest of the residual files it’s a bit like chewing gum stuck to the bottom of your desk and you’ve still got a sticky mess to deal with.

A thorough clean-up requires a bit more elbow grease. If you decide to take this route the first thing you should do is close the app if you have it open and then try manually delete the remaining files from the application data folder in Program Files. Take a look in there and delete any folders or files associated with the name Forticlient.

You’ll need to get a bit deeper and use the Revo Uninstaller tool to delete any registry keys still linked to the software. Again these residual elements can cause uninstallation problems so this is a pretty important step. Download the program removing Forticlient should be a few clicks away.

Hopefully these tips have given you an insight into troubleshooting Forticlient uninstallation. Just remember to be thorough and always double-check to make sure you got rid of every piece of evidence!
