So let’s have a look at how we can use the tool to completely remove Avast Antivirus from the computer. The tool completely removes all the leftover files and registry entries from the computer. However the only problem was that it required me to boot the computer in Safe mode before I could actually use it, which I was not in the mood for.ĭuring the research I found another interesting third-party tool called Avast Cleanup Tool which could remove it without booting the computer in Safe Mode. Why not Avast Uninstall UtilityĪvast Uninstall Utility is the removal tool that’s officially provided by Avast for the complete removal of their products. Since that day, I always look for the official removal tool by the same company, which all legit antivirus products provide.

I have had a tough time in the past when some leftover files of my old antivirus were coming in the way of the installer of the new antivirus and it turned out to be a nightmare. Now when it comes to uninstallation of Antivirus products, I never rely on Windows Add/Remove programs for the task. This meant I had to completely uninstall avast! from my PC first. I also decided to switch from Avast to a new one. However, recently I decided to go all in and upgrade to a paid antivirus which could provide more security. It has been a year since I have been using the free version of Avast Antivirus on my computer and so far it did a pretty decent job.
