AV Uninstaller Tool

Due to their nature, antivirus and other similar security software programs sometimes cannot be uninstalled the common way, using the ‘Add / Remove Programs’ section in Control Panel. In order to completely remove them, a dedicated tool might be required and normally, security companies offer removal utilities for their products.
Such an application is AV Uninstaller Tool, a simple utility designed to assist you in uninstalling a whole bunch of security tools, namely Norton AntiVirus, McAfee VirusScan (which no longer exists as a standalone product; it is now included in the McAfee Internet Security Suite), Dr.Solomon AntiVirus Toolkit, F-Prot Professional and F-Secure Antivirus.

Scan you computer for installed antivirus products and remove leftover files

There is no need to know which of the security tools are installed on your system, since you don’t have the possibility to select the antivirus to scan for.
Once you launch it, AV Uninstaller Tool starts searching the computer for all the versions of the above mentioned applications that might have been installed at some point. Not only that it removes the aforementioned programs from your system, but it scans the computer for any leftovers and deletes them as well.

Simple-to-trigger actions

User feedback is not required, since all you have to do is press the ‘OK’ button within the main window of AV Uninstaller Tool. It then proceeds to the actual scanning process, going through the system registry in order to find traces of any of the supported security programs.

Support for silent mode

The application can be run in silent mode using the ‘/S’ command in the console. In this case, the scanning process is started in the background, enabling you to carry on with your work. If none of the aforesaid programs are not found on your computer, AV Uninstaller Tool notifies you using a pop-up window.

Conclusion

Whether you simply want to clean your computer or install a new antivirus tool, AV Uninstaller Tool is worth trying. It can help you avoid possible conflicts that might occur between the new and the old security application.
