Duane Report post Posted February 2 (edited) I have Avast installed and want to replace it with PCMatic. Do I need to remove Avast before installing PCMatic? Any conflicts possible with both installed at the same time? Any tips on getting Avast completely removed? Waiting to purchase PCMatic until I have answers. Could not locate anything in the online materials available. Edited February 2 by Duane Additional info Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nigsy Report post Posted February 3 Hi; And It is advised to uninstall all other AV protection before installing another. This stops false positives and any conflicts. To remove Avast: https://www.avast.com/en-gb/uninstall-utility That should clear it for you. Any other questions about PCMatic please ask. N. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Duane Report post Posted February 6 (edited) Nigsy - Thank you for the response and link, but I preferred not to use an Avast product to uninstall their product. Too many rumors/stories about their intrusive code. I got rid of it with Revo and a little search and destroy work. Tx - FYI, I purchased PC Matic, did the download, etc., but the install did not identify any conflicting software (Avast) so I had to remove it. Notes for whoever is interested at PCPitstop: 1. I got a script error in the install process, but it doesn't appear to have affected anything. Sorry, I forgot to post first and lost the screen shot when I restarted. 2. Your purchase/install process could use a little refining. It seemed convoluted, and at times, hard to follow. Edited February 6 by Duane Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
