I have tried everything to get rid of Symantec Antivirus Corporate Edition v10, but it's there when I try to install any other AntiVirus and blocks any other AntiVirus from installing. I followed the manual uninstall guide at the Symantec Corporate Web Site http://service1.symantec.com/support/ent-s...87?OpenDocument and http://service1.symantec.com/support/ent-s...fa?OpenDocument Additionally, I have searched three times (to be certain they are removed) through my registry for: Norton Symantec Live Update And deleted any references I located. I even used the latest version of Norton_Removal_Tool.exe Unfortunately, the Symantec Antivirus still shows as being installed on my system. I'm desperate for help.

To: Christopher McDougall
Yes, I tried to reinstall NAV Corporate, but I get same error - that there is a previous installation that has not been completed. Meanwhile there is no previous installation as I tried to install after a re-boot and I didn't install anything prior to the reboot or before trying to install NAV Corporate. To: thrillhouse If you read my original message, I wrote: "I even used the latest version of Norton_Removal_Tool.exe" You gave me the link to this specific the removal tool. |

Erv ... something else to try is get a copy of WinASO Reg optimizer and do a scan and fix all problems it finds. It will go through and find 'broken' links in your registry and just do a general cleaning of your computer.
