Need help to remove AVG antivirus

Hi guys,

I previously used AVG antivirus for about a month and uninstalled it. But when I try to install Kaspersky antivirus it detects the presence of AVG and wont install. . ..

Please give me suggestions to remove AVG permanently and install Kaspersky.

Thanks

Remove the AVG file from Programs under Computer C:/ and also go into regedit and remove AVG from regedit then you will be able to install the others.

How to remove reg entry:

1. Press windows key and r together
2. Click on OK
3. Click on Current User
4. Double click on Software
5. Look for AVG
6. Right click and delete
