Hello,
I have Avast Free Antivirus version 20.8.2429 (build 20.8.5653.561). I am trying to uninstall it but am not able to do so.
This is what I tried:
1. I tried uninstalling through the control panel in Safe mode. But it seems to be stuck at the beginning, at the stage 'Replacing files'. I have attached the snapshot 'ControlPanel_Uninstall_SafeMode.jpg'.
2. I tried the avastclear.exe utility in Safe mode. But it also gets stuck. I do not even get the pop up that I am supposed to get, for the installation path. I have attached the snapshot 'AvastClear_SafeMode.jpg'.
3. I tried using the Avast repair feature from the uninstall option in Control Panel, again in Safe mode. Even that gets stuck in between. I have attached the snapshot 'Avast_Repair_SafeMode.jpg'.
Please let me know what could be wrong, and how I can fix this.
Thanks and Regards,
Sanjaya Madhyastha
