Thank you! AVG_clear.exe fixed my problem!
After an infection AVG stopped working and I tried to remove it. Starting the normal way with the uninstall program metod.
Still som AVG services where starting. Used the AVG Removal tool, which didnt find anything!
But still three or more? AVG services are started!
Stopped them manually and tried the Removal tool again. Both in normal startup and in safe mode. Didnt find anything. Launched the registy editor and tried to manually clean up the registry from AVG entries, Wasnt allowed to…
How do I get rid of these AVG files? Du you have a more effective tool you can send me?
- If is AVG Remover asking for restart PC, restart PC again
16. !! Please do not start exe files (avgfmwremoverx.exe, avgremoverx.exe, pctremoverx.exe)! Restart PC immediately after removal process, because after restart is planned removal process which remove services, registry keys and files which are locked!
If the issue persist please let us know, we are here to help you.(3/3)
Thank you.
Thank you! AVG_clear.exe fixed my problem!
