Title: HELP!!
Post by: Cyberse on April 09, 2020, 11:39:57 AM

I recently installed web utorrent and it installed avast antivirus additionally.
When I want to uninstall it, it denies all my access or action towards it so I can't even shut it down. Therefore, I can't uninstall it.
Please help me, I don't want to use any antivirus softwares at the moment.

Hi Cyberse,

Can you please take some screenshoots so we could understand better and try to reproduce your issue? This can be for example a rogue antivirus (fake antivirus that seems to be a legitimate one) but can be another few things.

Kind Regards,

Filipe ;)
