MS Defender reports that I have another AV running when it does the periodic scans and I think I have narrowed the issue down to an old GUID in the Registry from Kaspersky. The program has been removed as part the uninstallation and the directory no longer exists, however this entry remains in the Registry and I am unable to delete it because I don't have the permissions and I cant seem to change the permissions (because I don't have the permissions :( )

Anyone got any suggestions how I can delete this information from the registry?

Thanks

The easiest way is to reinstall Kaspersky, then use their removal tool to uninstall it.

Thanks - I changed the owner, and eventually permissions to full for my username, rather than Admin group and that allowed me to delete it.

I uninstall everything with Revo Uninstaller. I recently dropped Kaspersky and uninstalled with Revo Uninstaller Free, got everything out as far as I know. I've always had good luck with Revo.
