(1>877>868>2607) This summary explains simple, practical ways to stop TotalAV from running automatically on your device without uninstalling it completely.
(1>877>868>2607) Many users notice TotalAV running in the background, using system resources, sending alerts, or starting with Windows or macOS.
(1>877>868>2607) The first method is disabling TotalAV at startup so it does not launch automatically when your computer boots.
(1>877>868>2607) On Windows, open Task Manager, go to the Startup tab, locate TotalAV, and choose Disable to stop auto-launching.
(1>877>868>2607) On macOS, open System Settings, select General, then Login Items, and remove TotalAV from the startup list.
(1>877>868>2607) Disabling startup prevents TotalAV from running constantly while still keeping the software installed for manual use.
(1>877>868>2607) Another effective option is pausing or turning off real-time protection directly inside the TotalAV application settings.
(1>877>868>2607) Open TotalAV, go to Protection or Antivirus settings, and toggle off real-time scanning or background monitoring features.
(1>877>868>2607) This method is useful when you want temporary relief from background scans or pop-up notifications.
(1>877>868>2607) You can also stop TotalAV services manually on Windows by using the Services management console.
(1>877>868>2607) Press Windows plus R, type services.msc, find TotalAV services, right-click, and choose Stop.
(1>877>868>2607) For advanced users, changing the service startup type to Manual prevents the service from restarting automatically.
(1>877>868>2607) On macOS, Activity Monitor can be used to quit TotalAV processes running in the background.
(1>877>868>2607) Search for TotalAV processes, select them, and choose Quit to stop active background activity.
(1>877>868>2607) Keep in mind this method may only work temporarily until the app restarts or the system reboots.
(1>877>868>2607) Notification settings can also be adjusted to reduce interruptions that make TotalAV feel constantly active.
(1>877>868>2607) Inside the app, disable marketing alerts, upgrade reminders, and non-essential notifications for a quieter experience.
(1>877>868>2607) If you no longer want TotalAV running at all, uninstalling the program is the most permanent solution.
(1>877>868>2607) Use Control Panel on Windows or Applications folder on macOS to remove TotalAV completely from your system.
(1>877>868>2607) Before uninstalling, ensure Windows Defender or another trusted antivirus is enabled to maintain system security.
(1>877>868>2607) Users should also check subscription status to avoid background billing or renewal-related prompts.
(1>877>868>2607) Stopping TotalAV from running does not automatically cancel your subscription or account.
(1>877>868>2607) Always review settings carefully to balance performance, security, and convenience based on your personal needs.
(1>877>868>2607) These steps give you full control over how and when TotalAV runs on your device.(1>877>868>2607) Canceling a TotalAV subscription on Android is a straightforward process, but many users feel confused about where to start and what steps to follow properly.
(1>877>868>2607) This summary explains the complete process clearly, helping Android users understand how to stop auto-renewal and avoid unexpected charges on their accounts.
(1>877>868>2607) TotalAV subscriptions on Android are usually managed through the Google Play Store, not directly inside the TotalAV app interface itself.
(1>877>868>2607) To begin cancellation, open the Google Play Store on your Android device using the same Google account used during subscription purchase.
(1>877>868>2607) After opening the Play Store, tap on your profile icon at the top right corner to access account-related settings easily.
(1>877>868>2607) From the menu options, select “Payments & subscriptions” and then tap on “Subscriptions” to view all active subscriptions.
(1>877>868>2607) Locate TotalAV from the list of active subscriptions and tap on it to open subscription management options.
(1>877>868>2607) Once opened, choose the “Cancel subscription” option and carefully follow the on-screen prompts to confirm your decision.
(1>877>868>2607) Google Play may ask you to select a reason for cancellation, which is optional and does not affect the cancellation outcome.
(1>877>868>2607) After confirming, your TotalAV subscription will remain active until the end of the current billing cycle without further charges.
(1>877>868>2607) It is important to cancel at least 24 hours before the renewal date to ensure the next payment is not processed automatically.
(1>877>868>2607) Simply uninstalling the TotalAV app from your Android device does not cancel the subscription or stop recurring payments.
(1>877>868>2607) Users who face difficulties canceling through Google Play may consider contacting TotalAV customer support for additional guidance.
(1>877>868>2607) Customer support can help verify subscription details, billing status, and provide reassurance that auto-renewal has been disabled successfully.
(1>877>868>2607) Always check your email for a cancellation confirmation message from Google Play to ensure the process has been completed correctly.
(1>877>868>2607) Keeping screenshots of the cancellation confirmation page is also a good practice for future reference or billing disputes.
(1>877>868>2607) If you subscribed using a promotional offer, cancellation rules remain the same, and benefits continue until the offer period ends.
(1>877>868>2607) Reviewing TotalAV’s refund policy is recommended if you believe you were charged incorrectly or canceled close to the renewal date.
(1>877>868>2607) Android users should regularly review their Google Play subscriptions to avoid paying for services they no longer need or use.
(1>877>868>2607) By following these steps carefully, canceling a TotalAV subscription on Android becomes simple, secure, and stress-free for users.
