Hello,

I accidently installed the anti-virus program named ''avira security''. Now how can i delete it fully from my PC. Also i have tried to delete it from these ways:

1.) Tried to removing it from ''settings'' page of windows but couldn't find it there.

2.) Tried to removing it from control panel but couldn't find it there also.

3.) Tried to removing it some of it's files (I wasn't sure about how to find all of it's files of this progam's) but windows didn't let me delete it because i didn't have permission to do it.

Thanks.

    Too bad that their support isn't for everybody. I mean like they only give support advantage to paid costumers. What to do now so now (Based on my search in thier main website).

    Really. It seems that Avira no longer has an uninstall tool. This may have been a recent change.

    Anyway, I found the article below, which has instructions for removing Avira residual files. I believe this will help you.

    (Expand "I. Clean your system" for instructions)

    Hi. I'm David, and I'm happy to help you.

    Third-party antivirus programs are known to leave a lot of residues, even after being uninstalled in the usual way.

    To remove any traces of Avira from your system, I suggest using the removal/uninstall tool provided by the developer of Avira.

    Feel free to ask back any questions.
