Hi John,

How are you ? Hope you are doing well.

Avast removal tool is a very important tool, at some point you want to uninstall Avast antivirus and want to get some other tool but windows un-installer cannot uninstall all the .dll files from Avast installer directory and some of the registry is always stays there. So in that case you need to use the removal tool which is specially made to remove Avast.

Hope this information helped you.

Thank You.

Hello John,

 

 

Endpoint removal tool is designed to remove any and all traces of the anti virus you are using.  It completely removes it from the destination folder and the registry.  It isn't really needed unless you plan to change your anti virus provider.  You may also opt to manually uninstall the anti virus, clean your registry, and delete all files associated with it.

*Note: You need to be computer savvy to be able to do it manually.

 

Sincerely,

Luz M Terry
