Have a question? AVG AntiVirus is proving impossible to uninstall from my computer. I tried all the recommendations: uninstalling from the Programs list failed, a window pops up and reads "Unexpected Error! Sorry we've run into a problem during installation. Error code: 0xe Messages pop up in my Windows 7, indicating that I don't have an antivirus program installed. I can scan files when I right click on them I get the message: scan finished! Are you intentionally trying to make AVG impossible to uninstall?
Most people would not mind checking the Program Files folder and the right click menu after uninstall, but personally I am very annoyed by this experience. I was trying to temporarily uninstall AVG but I am having a terrible experience now and I am in doubt. I know this is a free product and you don't have to work without getting any benefit, but I should have the right to uninstall your product. Can you help me? Karthikeyan Avast Hello Matematike, We are sorry for the inconvenience.
This tool will help with removing AVG and its traces. Thank you. John Smith Search your computer for "avg" in the control panel, delete every file that it allows you to. There will be several that you can't. If you leave it at that it will reassemble itself somehow. It's the most advanced virus I've ever gotten tbh.
To delete the files that at first you can't you have to go to your control panel right click on your hard drive and click properties, click security click advanced click owner edit and then change the owner to the account you're logged in on. Now do the same thing for your windows file.
This parts a pain but one you do that for the Windows file you have to open the folder location for every single avg file you couldn't delete and do that same process to take ownership, after you take ownership of each file under the security tab click edit and give the account you're on full control under permissions.
