Problems with Uninstalling Quick Heal Trial Version

Even if you try to uninstall the Quick Heal antivirus using any third-party uninstaller, it still gives the same error. That means, if you want to reinstall the Quick Heal trial version, you have to completely remove Quick Heal from your system first. Also ensure that no stale registry entries are left behind.

Quick Heal itself used to provide a small utility to uninstall Quick Heal antivirus completely from your system. It is called Quick Heal Removal Tool or avremove. We can also use this for the trial reset on older versions of Quick Heal.

NOTE: Quick Heal 2020 (version 19) and newer can’t be removed by using the older avremove tool. And Quick Heal has not released avremove tool for Quick Heal v19 and newer either. We will use another Quick Heal trial resetter method for the latest version. It may work for older versions as well.

INFO: This method is for educational purposes only. Please buy the software license if you like the software.
