That's dissapointing to hear. I loved AVG on my PC, it's a shame that the Mac version behaves like malware, and as such i've removed it from my system. Thank you for getting back to me.

I have tried force quitting the process but initially saw forcequit wouldn't do anything. So I opened up terminal and use sudo to Kill the exact PID of the AVG process, but that doesn't work either. In fact, it seems that as soon as AVG is forced to quit it instantly turns back on under a different PID. There is absolutely no way I can kill it permanantly that I've been able to find. Hopefully there is someone here that can help, if not I'm going back to Avast.
Complete shut-down is STILL not available?? How is that even legal for a Windows app?
Sorry for the delay, Gerald.
We appreciate your efforts, but unfortunately, we do not have option to disable it completely. However, we have taken this as a feedback and escalated to our developer's team as a feature request.
I was pretty excited to try AVG given its great reviews but it's too fishy for my taste. I'd like to be able to completely disable it — no processes running in the background and without the need to click in many places to disable the features.
And looking at the answer above from 2018
Alan, That is a link to an AVG Support Chat. Unless you are implying i copy/paste my post in there, it does not help me with the issue I've described above.
