Answer options
A: CrowdStrikeRemovalTool.exe
B: UninstallTool.exe
C: CSUninstallTool.exe Correct answer
D: FalconUninstall.exe
Correct Answer:
C. CSUninstallTool.exe
Explanation

The CSUninstallTool.exe is the official command-line utility developed by CrowdStrike for the removal of the Falcon Sensor on Windows systems. This tool is primarily used in scenarios where the standard uninstallation method (e.g., via Control Panel or Apps & Features) fails, or when a required maintenance token is not available. The tool provides a reliable method for administrators to ensure a clean and complete removal of the sensor from an endpoint. Its use is documented in the official CrowdStrike Falcon platform documentation.

Why Incorrect

A. CrowdStrikeRemovalTool.exe is an incorrect and non-existent name for the official CrowdStrike Falcon Sensor uninstallation utility.
B. UninstallTool.exe is a generic name and not the specific executable provided by CrowdStrike for removing the Falcon Sensor.
D. FalconUninstall.exe, while descriptive of its function, is not the correct filename for the official CrowdStrike uninstallation tool.
