How do I remove other security solutions?

The main reason for using a security solution is to provide protection and safety for your data. But what happens when you have more than one security product on the same system?

When you use more than one security solution on the same computer, the system becomes unstable. The CompuClever Antivirus Plus installer automatically detects other security programs and offers you the option to uninstall them.

If you did not remove the other security solutions during the initial installation, follow these steps:

  • In Windows XP:

    1. Click Start, go to Control Panel and double-click Add / Remove programs.

    2. Wait a few moments until the installed software list is displayed.

    3. Find the name of the program you want to remove and select Remove.

    4. Wait for the uninstall process to complete and then reboot your system.

  • In Windows Vista and Windows 7:

    1. Click Start, go to Control Panel and double-click Programs and Features.

    2. Wait a few moments until the installed software list is displayed.

    3. Find the name of the program you want to remove and select Uninstall.

    4. Wait for the uninstall process to complete and then reboot your system.

  • In Windows 8:

    1. From the Windows Start screen, locate Control Panel (for example, you can start typing "Control Panel" directly in the Start screen) and then click its icon.

    2. Click Uninstall a program or Programs and Features.

    3. Wait a few moments until the installed software list is displayed.

    4. Find the name of the program you want to remove and select Uninstall.

    5. Wait for the uninstall process to complete and then reboot your system.

If you fail to remove the other security solution from your system, get the uninstall tool from the vendor website or contact them directly in order to provide you with the uninstall guidelines.
