Uninstall Avast
« on: January 21, 2021, 07:10:59 PM »
Hi,

I want to uninstall Avast Internet Security so that later I can install Avast Primium.

But my PC won't reboot.  When I run avastclear.exe in Admim Mode, the suggestion is to reboot the PC in Save Mode.  But it won't.  So, I have to start it again manually.
But I can start in Safe Mode when I press F8 on the start up.
Will it be the same, to start the PC in Safe Mode (by F8) and then run avastclear.exe in Admin Mode?

Thank you in advance.
