[QUOTE="IceMan7, post: 1122140, member: 121355"] Of course. But when I last had BD a few years ago, now it's more organized. Previously, more BD files were free without folders. In the case of Revo - you delete. First, they turn on Windows "add/remove programs". Then it scans keys. You delete. Then it scans folders. You delete. That's how I removed Eset and Fsecure. Then I reset the computer. Using Eset as an example. After restarting, I go to drive C. I type Eset in "search". It finds Eset files. I manually delete them to the trash. Restart the computer. I turn on CCCleaner. I run the cleaning. It removes all remnants from the trash. CCCleaner scans the registry and deletes them. Restart the computer. I checked FRST later and I have no traces of Eset and Fsecure. The same can be done with BD. Unfortunately, there is no perfect way to remove any AV. I got lucky. Or it could be that I need to use their removal tool or seek help on the forum because something is left behind by some AV. [/QUOTE]
