Hello, I have a problem with Movavi, I can't uninstall it (on my Asus laptop, Windows 8.1)!
When I go to the control panel, then to uninstall a program, I see the Movavi symbol and I right-click on it and it gives me Uninstall/Change, and I click on it and a small window opens saying that all Movavi programs must be closed, but there are no Movavi windows open!!!

PS: I installed it thinking it was free, but when the programs finished installing, I had to purchase it!

Thanks for your reply :)

    Hello, you should uninstall it with CCleaner, but the only downside is that it will leave the missing application shortcuts and therefore not remove them from the registry, but that's not a big deal.

      I don't have CCleaner, I have Bit Defender, and Bit Defender only uninstalls if it's a virus.

      But CCleaner is not an antivirus but a performance and maintenance software for the PC; it allows you to see if a DLL is missing or to rename a shortcut path, it uninstalls the product like the Windows utility "Uninstall a program."

    Hello,
    have you tried using Revo Uninstaller?

      See to download it, launch it, find the icon corresponding to the Movavi program, click uninstall, choose the advanced mode.
      The advanced mode will tell you all the objects related to Movavi remaining on your PC, check them to remove them permanently.

      I launched it and uninstalled it. When I go to the control panel, the icon is no longer there, but when I go to the home screen of W8.1 and then scroll down to the apps (or on the side it’s listed by installation date), I still see the Movavi icon.

      Revo uninstallation program, if you did it in advanced mode it has removed all Movavi objects. If when you click on the Movavi icon in the application menu the program does not launch anymore? In that case, right-click on the tile and remove from the home screen.
