I'm looking for advice on the best way to quickly remove .NET 6/7 from our company's systems, as we have Cyber Essentials+ assessments coming up and need to address all vulnerabilities. Sometimes when I try to uninstall it from employees' laptops, it just reappears. Any tips or solutions would be greatly appreciated!

Sounds like you're in a bit of a jam! If .NET is coming back after you uninstall it, it likely means there are dependent applications that require it. One suggestion is to ensure all your software is updated and patched, which might reduce the reported vulnerabilities instead of trying to get it to zero. You’ve got to balance security measures with operational needs.
Totally! My security team gives me a hard time about old software too, but keeping everything updated helps a lot.
