Hello @webrootcausingproblems Welcome to the Webroot Community Forum.

To Uninstall Webroot on your Mac Computer:

Uninstall WSA on Mac Computer
Make sure you have a copy of your 20 Character Alphanumeric Keycode! Example: SA69-AAAA-A783-DE78-XXXX

************************

You will see a pop up saying you don’t have permission to uninstall some of the files that were installed when you installed Webroot on your Mac. These files can only be removed by Sudo Commands from Webroot Support only. You would need to call them to do a remote from Support because Webroot will not release the Sudo Commands by Support Ticket. I tried to get them from Support and failed.

Please submit a  Support Ticket  or  Contact Webroot Support  to sort this problem. This service is FREE with a Paid Subscription.

Support Ticket System is Open 24/7

 

Note: When submitting a Support Ticket, Please wait for a response from Support. Putting in another Support Ticket on this problem before Support responses will put your first Support Ticket at the end of the queue.

 

HTH,

Dave.

I love how everyone just keeps telling me the same thing. for the 9th time I've tried to uninstall then you mention how I can't do that myself, should have been the first thing you said. And putting in the code for the ninth time and letting the scan run also did nothing. 

I’m just really pissed excuse I just bought a new code and I can't use it. 

I’m just a volunteer here on the Webroot forum, not an employee. I would suggest to contact Webroot Support to get this fixed.

Here are the files that need to be Sudo off by Webroot Support to do a complete clean uninstall:
