AVG not uninstalling

I want to uninstall AVG trial version.
I already tried both ways of using the installer and using the uninstall option and the add/remove programs.

When I try to uninstall it it gives me an error the details are

Local machine: installation failed
Installation:
Error:Action failed for registry key HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\\Windows: creating regsitry key...
Access is denied

I have no idea what this means but I need to uninstall it.

 

try install it again then go to add&remove and remove it

 

You should be able to remove that software using the removal tool. You can find it at this link.

I have a freeware called Revo Uninstaller and it has uninstall anything and completly everything. Try it.

 

does revo have force unistall on it or similar

 

It has what is called a "hunter mode" if you are able to place it on the program you want to delete...it will do it.You must orient yourself as what it can do. I've been in a situation where the program's uninstaller stops then I exit program's uninstaller and revo will continue to clean up all the way to the registry.(It is excellent for cleaning up everything) I hope this helps.

 

Humm ill have to check that out to see what its all about it. It sounds like it may be helpfull to me. Thanks!

 

sometimes this place gives you something decent for free aswell LINK

 

I should mention that I am using the free edition... If you purchase the Pro edition for $19.62 it definitly has force uninstall but I've managed so far with the free edition.
