VIPRE Removal Tool

Due to their nature, security solutions create files deeply into the system, which makes their removal a bit more difficult. It is not that the standard removal procedure doesn’t work, but there might be leftover files that are preserved onto the system, as the Windows uninstaller might not be able to detect or delete them. That is why many antivirus companies do provide a dedicated uninstaller that can easily find files created by their security product and help you remove all the traces before the inevitable system restart.

The same goes for the VIPRE products. Their developer also created the VIPRE Removal Tool, a dedicated application that makes it possible to completely remove VIPRE products in a secure manner, while making sure that there are no leftover files behind. It is a dedicated uninstaller for VIPRE products, one that is worth trying especially when the regular uninstallation methods fail to work.

The VIPRE Removal Tool requires no installation itself. In other words, it is up, running and ready to use as soon as you double-click on the main executable file. The main window is simple and only includes two buttons, one for initiating the uninstaller and the other for cancelling it.

A popup window is shown to let you know that VIPRE Removal Tool tries to remove any VIPRE product that is found on the local system. The screen notifies you that a system restart might be required in order for the changes to take effect.

When other methods fail to work for removing VIPRE products from your PC, the VIPRE Removal Tool might be of great service. This application can easily locate and delete the installation files of VIPRE products. On the other hand, any desktop shortcut created by VIPRE products is not erased and you will have to remove it manually.

The application can uninstall the VIPRE agent for VIPRE Business, VIPRE Business Premium, VIPRE Endpoint Security, and VIPRE Endpoint Security. In other words, the VIPRE console is not removed with this application and you should remove it yourself manually prior to running the VIPRE Removal Tool.
