I need a solution

Well i tryed all, clean wipe for endpoint protection, clean manually registry, use the command sdc and others, try to uninstall with powershell, revo uninstaller and all i found and the update still say i need to uninstall Symantec endpoint protection. And really i uninstalled it long time ago, i don't remember which version i used but i clean all. Any Ideas?

*EDIT*

the solution was:

 
Windows 10 setup for build 1709, has a built-in file compatibility scanner, that scans all local drives, it found on my D drive
An old download folder where I have extracted the setup files for ghost9 & SEP 12.1.1, this is an old folder I forgot that exist.
They were never installed on my PC, but for windows 10 setup compatibility checker it was enough to preset them as if the software was installed And ask to remove them.

Tracking was hard, I had to cross reference two files C:\$WINDOWS.~BT\Sources\Panther\setupact.log & C:\$WINDOWS.~BT\Sources\Panther\_APPRAISER_HumanReadable.xml
In the first you find what files triggered the application compatibility error and on the second you get the location where the file was found!

This is nuts! , I have deleted the folders, and problem solved!

Case closed.
