Can't Uninstall AVG PC Tuneup

I successfully uninstalled Free AVG antivirus, but when I go to uninstall AVG PC Tuneup via the control panel, the AVG uninstaller "hangs" at 1%. I'm having trouble with conflicts with other programs, and need to uninstall AVG Tuneup.
What do I do now?

Hello Dan,

I understand that you are unable to uninstall AVG PC TuneUp from your computer control panel. Please click on the below link to download and run AVG remover tool.

http://download.avg.com/filedir/util/AVG_Remover.exe

Note: Once the removal of AVG is complete, go to C Drive and delete the AVG remover folder.

If you face any difficulties, feel free to contact us.

This "remover" does not work! I am quite annoyed with this issue, forcing your custommers to install programmes they do not want becuase they create problems, but cannot unistall. This is unacceptable, the AVG PC TuneUp should be changed so we can unistall easily, other wise I (and many other like me) will stop using AVG altogether!!!

Hello Solder, 

In light of the current circumstances concerning COVID-19 outbreak, there was a delay. We are operational now.
We're sorry to know that you feel this way.
We would like to know which version of AVG tuneup that you have on your PC.
Do you see the program icon in the name as "AVG PC TuneUp" or "AVG TuneUp"?
