How to Perfectly Uninstall Norton AntiVirus 2012

Many programs can be easily uninstalled by using Add/Remove Programs (or Programs and Features if you are using Windows 7 or Vista) from the Windows Control Panel. However, this option is not always available. And trying to uninstall Norton AntiVirus 2012
from your computer can be a little tricky.

Why you can not fully remove Norton AntiVirus 2012 thru the Windows built-in “Add/Remove Programs”? Because after you conduct the removal by this way, as a matter of fact, there are still some registry entries and related files left in the corners of your registry
and hard drives. Then you need to delete all of them.

After removing this antivirus thru “Add/Remove Programs”, firstly, you need to uninstall the F-Prot related files. To do this, you can open up My Computer, browse to C:/Program Files/ and then delete them. This will permanently get rid of the program files
for F-Prot, preventing it from running in the future.

Secondly, you need to remove all the registry keys that link this program into Windows. Then open REGEDIT.EXE (which is found in the C:/Windows folder) and press CTRL+F to search for the program, after that delete all these keys when finding them.

When you perform this manual removal, you have to be very careful, because failure to do so can result in performance problems, registry errors as well as instability issues among other problems.

However, besides this risky method, there is also a much easier and safer way to remove F-Prot. You can use a removal tool to help you get rid of the entire software program in seconds, with hassle free.

There is actually a fantastic removal tool that can help you fully remove Norton AntiVirus 2012 with great success and make sure all the now-defunct Registry entries and related files are eliminated automatically
with a few clicks. Aside from this software, it can also completely remove other programs like Authentium, Norton, Trend Micro antivirus, Internet Explorer, Microsoft Office, and similar programs.
