Many users after using antivirus Comodo, prefer to switch to software from other developers. However, this is not easy to do. This antivirus doesn’t want to leave in an amicable way. It happens that he It’s just not in the list of software in the Control Panel or the deletion occurs with errors. What to do in these situations? Until you delete it Comodo completely different antivirus The software may not install.

How to remove Comodo completely

  • To begin with, let's use regular means. Let's go to Control Panel and in the list of software we look for and uninstall Comodo antivirus.

  • If there are programs with names Comodo Dragon or GeekBuddy, then they also need to be removed.

  • Perhaps such programs are not in the list or deletion will be accompanied by errors, then just move on to the next step in the instructions.
  • Download a special utility that will help completely destroy Comodo and his traces. The utility is called Uninstaller Tool v0.3b and you can download it at this address http://uninst.ru/setting/uninstall/63-comodo.
  • Before running the utility, you must shut down the application components Comodo.
  • We click with the right mouse button on the antivirus icon, which is located in the tray and select the lines Sandbox and Disable. This important step. You can't miss it!

  • Next, unpack the archive of the downloaded auxiliary utility and launch the one that matches the antivirus version, installed on PC.

  • We launch as administrator ( the corresponding line in context menu, when you click on the utility icon with the right mouse button).
  • Followed by press button 1 on the keyboard and then Enter.

How to remove Comodo from your phone

Comodo is free software, which protects computers running all versions of Windows OS from Internet attacks and intrusions from external environment. But there are situations when the Comodo package is no longer needed for of this computer, then you need to uninstall or delete it.

  • Before you uninstall Comodo, you must close it. RMB on the Tray icon -> Exit.
  • Now you need to go to the uninstall programs menu. It is located in the Control Panel. In Windows XP this menu is called “Add and Remove”, in Windows XP it is called “Programs and Features”.
  • Find the name of this antivirus program and double-click on it.
  • A window will open through which you can either remove Comodo Internet Security or modify it. Just select what you need and click “Next”.
  • The program's uninstallation progress will be displayed in this window. This may take up to several minutes.

Incorrect deletion

Using this method, you can remove any programs from your computer. Some users sometimes delete the program folder itself, but in in this case this cannot be done. The deletion will not be correct and final. This may result in you being unable to install another antivirus program, since a “undone” Comodo will conflict with it.

If you did delete the Comodo folder manually, then it will be useful for you to know how to delete Komodo after such an operation. To do this, you need to install this antivirus again and remove it according to the scheme described above. If something does not work out (for example, you cannot install Comodo or it does not install correctly and, accordingly, cannot be removed), then you should use one of third party utilities. In particular, free Revo program Uninstaller is designed specifically for erasing such “hard to remove” programs.

You may also need to clean the registry. To do this, you need to either manually remove all entries containing the word “Comodo” from it, or, again, use third party software, which can do this automatically (in this case you need to do backup copy registry to always be able to return the old system state).

Previously, there was a special utility with which you could completely remove Comodo from your computer in just a few clicks, including all system files and registry entries.
But after leaving Comodo versions 6 and higher, which contains not only the antivirus program itself, but also a combination of firewall + browser + geek body, the developers have not yet created a suitable uninstaller to eliminate the new Komodo. Therefore, you will have to do everything yourself.

Note: detailed description using the UninstallerTool
Instructions for removing Comodo using the utility.

Method 1 is suitable when the Komodo product is installed without errors.

1. Start -> Control Panel -> Uninstall a program.

2. Find Comodo Internet Security in the list and click Uninstall/Change.

3. The Install/Remove Program Wizard will appear, following the instructions you can completely remove it from your Komodo computer.

4. Reboot the system - Everything is ready.

Method 2: If you uninstall Comodo using Windows failed

A minute of theory: in case of deletion error using standard methods or if another antivirus product does not want to be installed, then you need to use a more brutal method and remove Komodo manually from your computer.

1. Reboot the computer in safe mode. To do this, while loading it, click F8 and select “Safe Mode”.

2. Launch my computer or Total Commadner and find the folder with Komodo antivirus. By default, it is located at c:\Program Files\COMODO\. We remove it completely.

3. Launch CCleaner. We clean the computer first in the “Cleaning” mode, and then in the “Registry” mode from temporary files, empty directories and various unnecessary registry entries.

4. Reboot the system.
Now Komodo antivirus completely removed from the computer.

Note: we should expect from the developers in the near future new utility to clean your computer from version 6 of the program.
Then the removal process of this software It will become generally very fast and convenient.
