How To Remove Splashtop Software
So, we have bumped into Splashtop Software, and we wish to uninstall it from all the computers. Unfortunately, we cannot find the uninstaller in add or remove programs so the next best solution would be to run a Command Script to remove the Splashtop Software.
What is Splashtop anyways?
Splashtop is a family of remote-desktop software and remote support software, developed by Splashtop Inc. Splashtop enables users to remotely access or remotely support computers from desktop and mobile devices. Splashtop enables remote computer access for businesses, IT support and help desks, MSPs, and educational institutions.
In a few steps we will have the Splashtop Software removed.
- Open Notepad.
- Copy and paste the following into notepad.
msiexec /x {B7C5EA94-B96A-41F5-BE95-25D78B486678} /qn REG DELETE "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Splashtop Inc." /f > nul 2> nul REG DELETE "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Splashtop Inc." /f > nul 2> nul RMDIR /S /Q "C:\Program Files (x86)\Splashtop\Splashtop Remote\Server" > nul 2> nul RMDIR /S /Q "C:\ProgramData\Splashtop\Temp" > nul 2> nul sc stop "SplashtopRemoteService" sc delete "SplashtopRemoteService" sc stop "SSUService" sc delete "SSUService" RMDIR /S /Q "C:\ProgramData\Splashtop\Splashtop Software Updater" > nul 2> nul RMDIR /S /Q "C:\Program Files (x86)\Splashtop\Splashtop Software Updater" > nul 2> nul
3. Save As your notepad doc as splashtopremoval.bat and remember to change Save As Type to All Files.
4. Right click on ateraremoval.bat and select run as administrator.
You can also automate this process by deploying this script through your current RMM tool or through Windows Group Policy.

I’m assuming i need to right click on the file I created (splashremoval.bat). Unfortunately it doesnt work. I cannot even locate any splash files on this ancient asus I’m working on for my 80 yr old neighbor. I have run several scripts from Splashtop to no avail. No splashtop apps in the program list. I’m stumped.
Thanks

what steps would you take to only remove the splashtop software updater ?
Hello John,
Why would you want to do that? what is the underlying issue you are trying to solve due to splashtop updates?
