How to uninstall expired Kasperksky without required password

kasperskyuninstall

My colleage's PC has Kaspersky software that is expired. And he want to remove the software – I help him to uninstall it but the software requires some password that nether of us knows what it is.

A software should be able to be removed by the PC's administrator so I ask here to look for such workaround. My quick google search for this seems not helpful at all.

Please share if you know how to.
