cant delete Sophos after trial ended

Mason David

I tried Sophos antivirus and firewall on a 1 month trial.

After the trial was finished I tried to uninstall it but it asks for the password , when i put in my password it wont recognise it as the 1 month trial has finished and it wont allow the use of the password for removal .

I tried deleting the folders manually but of course it blocks me from doing that too.

I contacted sophos support but they were arrogant obnoxious and unhelpful , they just told me to reset the password but of course their official site wont allow it as the trial has finished.

I tried to run Sophos diagnostic utility but it says "could not create log directory - you do not have write permissions"

I have tried revo-uninstaller but there is still sophos files on the comp.

I also tried Eset AV removal tool but that cant even see sophos.

Is there software i can use to erase it without reformatting my entire drive ?

How can i delete this garbage ?

    Hi  

    I apologize for the inconvenience caused. I believe it must be asking for tamper protection password when you are trying to uninstall. You can try to recover the tamper password with the help of this article and then try to uninstall Sophos. If you are still facing the issue after that, I would request you to provide the screenshot of the error you are getting while trying to uninstall.
