Previous methods to uninstall Zen or stop it from installing altogether now don’t work.
Here we’ll show you how to disable AVG Zen and uninstall the Avira Connect Launcher so you don’t have to use them if you don’t want.įor those who dislike AVG Zen, the bad news is the 2017 free antivirus has integrated it even more tightly into the package than before. While these launchers shouldn’t really take up a huge amount of system resources, they are for the most part, unnecessary. In essence, you are stuck with the launcher whether you want it or not. The tray icons also take you to the launcher instead of opening the antivirus main interface. The problem is Zen and Connect are integrated into the free antivirus packages and refuse to let you uninstall the launcher software while the antivirus is installed. In reality though, they are hindrance for the majority of users that just want the antivirus and are not interested in any of the other products. They are referred to as central hubs to control the products you own from the company on all your devices. AVG’s interface is called Zen while Avira’s launcher is called Connect. A few vendors have gone further and now put their free antivirus behind a launcher fronted that advertises their other products.īoth AVG and Avira have gone down this route and when you click the tray or desktop icon for the antivirus it takes you to the launcher instead. While you as a user might have no interest in anything else being offered apart from the free antivirus, the antivirus company is keen to make you aware that these other products exist. These days, many antivirus companies are branching out and now sell VPNs, tweaking and cleaning software and various other services or applications.
