Answer # 1 #

Uninstalling Quick Heal Total Security can sometimes be tricky if it doesn't remove cleanly. Here's what works:

Standard method (Windows): 1. Open Windows Settings → Apps → Apps & features 2. Scroll to find Quick Heal Total Security 3. Click on it and select Uninstall 4. Follow the prompts and restart your computer when done

Using Quick Heal removal tool: If the standard method fails: 1. Download the Quick Heal Removal Tool from their official website 2. Run the tool as administrator 3. Follow the on-screen instructions 4. Restart your computer

Manual removal (if both above fail): 1. Boot into Safe Mode 2. Delete Quick Heal folders from Program Files and ProgramData 3. Remove Quick Heal entries from Registry (advanced users only) 4. Run a registry cleaner afterward

Pro tips: - Disable real-time protection before uninstalling - Use official removal tool if regular uninstall fails - Check for leftover services in Task Manager after uninstall

After removal, I recommend running a different antivirus scan to ensure no remnants remain that could cause conflicts with your new security software.

I've helped many people remove Quick Heal when it gets stubborn. Here's my battle-tested approach:

Step-by-step removal process:

  1. Preparation:
  2. Backup important data (always safe)
  3. Download the Quick Heal Uninstall Tool from their website

  4. Have your Windows admin password ready

  5. Standard uninstall attempt:

  6. Control Panel → Programs → Uninstall a program
  7. Find Quick Heal → Uninstall

  8. If this works, you're done!

  9. When standard method fails:

  10. Download Revo Uninstaller (free version works)
  11. Run it as Administrator
  12. Select Quick Heal for aggressive removal

  13. Let it remove leftover files and registry entries

  14. Nuclear option:

  15. Boot into Safe Mode with Networking
  16. Run the official Quick Heal removal tool
  17. Use CCleaner to clean registry leftovers
  18. Reboot normally

Common issues and solutions: - "Another installation in progress": Restart computer and try immediately - Password protected: Use the removal tool which bypasses this - Services won't stop: Safe Mode is your friend

The key is persistence - sometimes it takes 2-3 attempts with different methods. The official removal tool usually works when all else fails.
