Windows 10 says Delete Webroot

Hello jgard63,
 
Welcome to the Webroot Community,
 
Yes you will need to uninstall Webroot and it can be reinstalled again. I'm sure you can reinstall from Amazon. You could also contact Amazon  and confer with them. But you will have to uninstall Webroot completely.
 
 
When its goes gold we will have a client that is  fully supported.
 
 
Hope this helps,
 
 
 
Kind Regards,

I have the same problem but I had installed Webroot directly from the Webroot internet site.  Any words of wisdom on doing a reinstall after 10 is installed.

From what I have noticed this is NOT unique to Webroot. I tried this with several Antivirus suites (Eset Smart Security, Emsisoft Internet Security, Adaware Internet Security, just to name three) and each one gets flagged for uninstall before Windows 10 will continue. I think (although I have no firm proof of this) that Microsoft is insisting for the uninstall so that when Windows 10 is installed it also does a simple security configuration for both it's firewall and for Windows Defender. So after installing Windows 10 you install a 3rd party suite and the 3rd party suite can then disable the parts it needs to control.
 
Honestly I think this is actually a good thing. It helps prevent having two Antivirus's fighting each other for control. Now I realize that Webroot is not your normal Antivirus so it shouldn't have issues with Windows 10, but I can see Microsofts point in better safe then sorry approach. And just for giggles I tried to install with Panda Cloud installed and the exact same message popped up.
 
So I think I can feel safe in saying that this is gonna be happening to virtually everyone at one stage or another. As Daniel and Sherry stated it really isn't a big deal and it should be fairly simple uninstall and reinstall. This is something that just started to happen within the last two builds so many people are asking about this. They are also throwing out popups about Media Center now and won't even try to install unless it is uninstalled first.
 
Long story short, This means they are getting closer to launch and are starting to tidying up the loose ends. This is a good thing. I also suspect we will see several more builds before July 29th so be prepared for more fun on this update ride.

Here is another and even on there own Surface Tablets.

And this one!
 

Also if you happened to buy and install Windows Media Center for Win 8.1 very sad!

That's what I just read while updating Windows 10 preview..reading how to reserve a spot. I can't get the reserve button to show up. Is that because I'm just running W/10 Preview and installed over Windows 7? Not sure..
 
Thanks Daniel for the news about W/10 🙂

Ive been requesting help with this for a long time. 
 
I had a subscription to ewbroot which expired in February. I chose not to continue as the cost was far to high.
 
I removed it using the control panel. When I upgraded to windows 10 I to got the message that webroot was not compatible and to delete it. 
WELL I can't, I wasn't even aware it was on my machine. I went looking and its there, when I try to remove it, I get the message my sub has expired. Well I know this. Now I want it off my machine its messing with my current AV product and needs to be gone.
I want am unistaller. Please, Ive asked and asked in messages and you keep saying you can't find my account info. Well OBVIOUSLY I had one, I sent the messages and OBVIOSULY I don't anymore because I chose not to renew with you.
 
Please help me get this garbage off my machine. Best buy will charge me and they are the jerks that recommended this.

Hello ?,
 
Welcome to the Webroot Community,
 
EDITED: Looks like  ?  has assisted here as well..;)

If I might add: You say that you cancelled back in February.  As you did not pay Best Buy for the renewal back in February, your subscription with them is 'dead'.  They will not charge you for it, even if the software remains on the computer.
