Q: How do I uninstall Cisco Anyconnect VPN Client on Mac OS X?
Tangential solution, but: Cisco does provide a Mac client. I believe you can export the config from the PC client and import to the Mac client - or just look at the settings & duplicate them. Of course, they may have security posture settings, but I doubt it if you're allowed to connect using your own Windows rather than a supplied build.
Answer
If the application is still installed do this:
- From the Finder go to the Applications folder.
- Look for the Cisco folder and open it
- Then double click on Uninstall Anyconnect to start the uninstall process
- Follow instructions to uninstall VPN program
