Uninstall Zamfoo Malware Protect

Before you start

You need root SSH access. Keep any quarantined files or recovery backups you may still need.

Steps

1. Finish or cancel active work.

   Stop any running scan and cancel any cleanup in WHM.

2. Disable the maintenance timer.

   Stop background work.

   systemctl disable --now zamfoo-malware-maintenance.timer

3. Remove the cPanel report page.

   Remove Malware Reports from cPanel.

   /usr/local/cpanel/scripts/uninstall_plugin /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/docroot/cgi/zamfoo_malware/deployment/cpanel --theme=jupiter

4. Remove the WHM app.

   Unregister Zamfoo Malware Protect from WHM.

   /usr/local/cpanel/bin/unregister_appconfig zamfoo_malware

5. Check both interfaces.

   Sign in to WHM and cPanel again and confirm the menus are gone.

What you should see

Malware Protect no longer appears in WHM or cPanel and no background work runs.

If something goes wrong

Disabling Malware Protect does not change your scanners or their own schedules. Ask support before deleting the plugin folder, which also holds saved copies.
