I feel very embarrassed to see that an antivirus install unwanted applications. How can I remove "Software update", "Phantom VPN" etc..etc..?

This Avira through the years from antivirus become a kind of spam, PUA, application program. I am quite sure from now to don't renew again. But now I paid it so...how I can remove these modules? Look like impossible from the main program.

I really disappointed. I pay for an antivirus not for a fancy, invasive, spam software.

  Hello Stefano,

  Because of the changing digital landscape, threats are no longer caused only by viruses and malware. Naturally, that makes online protection more complex.

  Based on our customers' needs and our knowledge about online threats, it's important that we evolve our traditional antivirus to include 360-degree protection.

  This is why we have created Avira Security, the successor of Avira Antivirus Pro. With Avira Security, you still have access to the Avira Antivirus Pro that you know — on top of other features — to protect your online security and privacy and improve performance. These new features include Phantom VPN, Password Manager, Software Updater, and more – all managed from the Avira Security interface.

  Since all these added functionalities are now part of one bigger product – Avira Security – it is not possible to uninstall them as individual components from your computer.

  Best,
