Start Dr.Web for Android. The list of application components opens — the icons that are enabled will be highlighted in green and accompanied by the text enabled. Select each item you want to disable — the disable button is at the top.

With the anti-virus disabled, your mobile device becomes vulnerable. Be sure to reactivate Dr.Web as soon as you can.

You can use whichever standard method is convenient for you to uninstall the application, either by going to SettingsApplications on your device or by clicking on the anti-virus icon in the context menu.

All the available ways to uninstall the application are listed in the documentation.

After its initial launch, Dr.Web establishes a network connection with the server from which it is receiving a license. Depending on the quality of the Internet connection and the performance of your device, this process may take about one minute. Just connect your device to the Internet and wait until the message saying that your license was not found disappears.

Update your browser and try to download the file again, or rename the file, replacing the zip extension with the apk extension.

Start the registration procedure from the beginning.
