When I try to uninstall AVAST which has appeared uninvited on my computer it crashes my computer. It has been suggested that I turn off Webroot and try and uninstall it again.

Hi Linda!


The thread you would want to request product help for is below: 

https://community.webroot.com/product-help-discussions-9


Also, what you are looking at might not actually be Avast since it appeared uninvited and you don’t know how it was installed. My guess would be a browser hijacker masquerading as Avast. A screenshot would be helpful. And the type of device you have.

PS. Do not disable Webroot.

Yes don’t shut down Webroot!


 


Hi Linda,

 

So you didn’t install Avast? Could someone else have done it? I can’t tell if it’s real or not so please contact Webroot Support as I posted above so they can check and help you.

 

Thanks,
