    Hello and welcome to the Bitdefender forums.


    If this security solution is no longer installed on your PC, it means that it left some registry keys behind. And they are detected by Bitdefender during the installation.


    Please click on Start menu -> type regedit inside the Search bar / in the Run box and the Registry Editor appears.


    In the left panel look for these keys and delete them (if any):


    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Kingsoft Antivirus


    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Kingsoft Antivirus
