  • I tried to remove Sophos AV by moving it to the trash, and I get the error message when I try to install the upgrade version. After reading your instructions I didn't find the "remove sophos..." application in the Library folder or anywhere else in my Mac HD. I reinstalled the original version, but still no sign of the "remove sophos.." application. How should I proceed to do a clean uninstall if I don't have the removal tool? Thanks.
