Uninstall Avast

Does anyone know how to uninstall the free version of Avast? They offer no instructions on their website and it certainly is not intuitive!!!

Wise decision.

Please do not install any other AV software or so-called cleaners on your Mac. No Anti-Virus software or so-called “cleaning” apps are needed or recommended for Mac OS. They can conflict with Mac's own built-in security. At best they will slow your Mac by using unnecessary resources and at worst will bork your entire system. Your Mac has all the built-in protection you need.
