I just installed the latest version of Avira for my Mac. I successfully installed it and followed the instructions to add it to the Security & Privacy setting to allow it to scan the entire disk. However Avira keeps popping up a message saying that I need to add it to Security & Privacy to allow it to scan the entire disk whenin fact I have already done so. So I do it again and again and again and it never stops. It is completely broken.

 

Now I just want to get rid of the program. I don't want to fix it . How do I get it off of my system so I can do my work in peace?

  Hello Richard,

   

  Sadly, if you won’t provide any further information like your used macOS version it’s quite difficult to analyze this behavior. As you want to delete it, please perform this steps:

  Domink, it appears that many people are having this issue.  Several have provided screen shots as well as which version of Mac OS we're running.  Why isn't Avira addressing this issue?  I'm tired of seeing the "Finish setting up Avira Antivirus" in the upper corner of my screen.  Seems that most people with this problem are running Mojave Version 10.14.6
