How to uninstall WithSecure Server Security from a Windows Server using the Uninstallation Tool?

If you cannot uninstall WithSecure Server Security from the program and features, you can uninstall it using the WithSecure Uninstallation Tool. Which uninstallation tool you should use depends on the WithSecure Server Security version that is installed on the Windows server.
Note: If you have WithSecure Email and Server Security installed on the server, do not use the Uninstallation Tool since a removal can cause issues with the email flow.
