Avast Uninstall (AVCLEAR) program won't uninstall
« on: July 16, 2017, 03:38:55 AM »
I uninstalled Avast a while ago and had to download a special program for it, I think it was called AVCLEAR.  Fine, it worked as advertised but in the process it created a default boot in the BIOS that I can not get rid off.  So when ever I boot the PC I have to sit on the boot process to change the bootup procedure, otherwise it boots up in SAFE MODE.  This is beyond annoying.  I've tried a boot manager program that should eliminate any unwanted boot sectors, but it doesn't find any other then the Windows boot.  I want to give this boot the boot!   How do I get rid of it?  I've even re-installed AVAST since then but the Safe Mode boot remains.

BTW, your captcha image is terrible.

As already has been explained in other threads, use msconfig to remove that boot option.
