How to remove Trend Micro

6 05 2010

I recently learned that McAfee made a little mistake on VirusScan 8.7 Patch 3.  In this patch McAfee forgot to include the removal piece for Trend Micro products.  If you need to go about removing any Trend Micro products you need to manually remove them or request a copy of VirsuScan 8.7 Patch 2 from McAfee Support.  The Patch 2 version has the correct configuration to stop Trend services and remove the products.

It is important to know that password protection must be turned off on the Trend products or else the removal will fail.

Trust me the manual removal of a Trend product is lengthy and difficult.  Use VirusScan 8.7 Patch 2 to do the work for you.
