SOLVED: How to Uninstall InTune From an Android Device When Uninstall Is Greyed Out
If you have any management software on your Android device and try to remove it, you have likely found that both FORCE STOP and UNINSTALL are greyed out. The solution is to set that program to not be an “administrator”, then uninstall. Below are the detailed instructions and screenshots from an Android S6:
Launch SETTINGS then LOCK SCREEN AND SECURITY
Click OTHER SECURITY SETTINGS
Click DEVICE ADMINISTRATORS
Slide the COMPANY PORTAL slider to off (or whatever management/security software you are having problems uninstalling)
Click DEACTIVATE
Click OK on the warning
Go back to SETTINGS and click APPLICATIONS
Click APPLICATION MANAGER
Click COMPANY PORTAL (or whatever management/security software you are having problems uninstalling)
Won't work for me... The admin apps sliders won't turn off...
Appreciated, Successfully uninstalled. Thanks for your efforts. May God Bless You.
successfully uninstall. 100% works !
Thanks for the solution. I removed the app from my phone without my previous company account which had been disabled!
Thanks for update....Really great solution....
When I try this, I get "Settings has stopped" every time I try to deactivate company portal. Help!
I would call Microsoft on this one as InTune is changing very quickly.
