Hello folks,

As the thread says, I am unable to uninstall ESET Nod32 Antivirus 7 on my Windows 8.1 Pro.. I've uninstalled it over *Programs & Features* already, and as far as I remember it was successful. Then, without restarting, installed Qihoo 360 Total Security, updated, then restarted the PC.

Now, whenever I restart my PC, both of them are opening theirselves and I want ESET to be gone :/ Well, tried Revo Uninstaller too, Programs&Features and Revo, both shows that there is NO Eset products on the machine. As I search the ESET file over Program Folder, yeah, its there..

How can I uninstall it without having to delete the whole folder and clean the registry from ESET entries one by one..? :(

Thanks in advance!

p.s : Already restarted PC 2-3 times.
