Hello,

I tried to remove the agent, with this:

 Get-WmiObject win32_product -filter "Name LIKE 'Pulseway'" | Select-Object IdentifyingNumber;

But it is empty. Try to reinstall the agent, but I get the error "Service already exist."

In add/remove software is Pulseway agent, how can I remove it?

First off, you should never call Win32_Product. It's slow for starters, but it also triggers Windows to perform a Windows Installer reconfiguration on EVERY single msi app installed on the system.  This is terrible and could cause apps to do a repair if it thinks it found an issue. The impact and possible damage that could be caused by running that command is not worth the hassle.  

I highly recommend instead you run this:

Get-ItemProperty "HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\*" | Where-Object {$_.DisplayName -eq "Pulseway"}

You can grab the UninstallString and perform an uninstall that way.  LMK if you need further assistance scripting this.
