Uninstall fails SAV Home Edition v 9.0.8 for Mac

First, I have read and followed all the related posts more than once ( Remove (uninstall) Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac Home Edition (the free version), Articles:120838, 121206, 14179).  I have run the removal program which was installed alongside SAV. It failed to uninstall. I have downloaded and run the tool from article 121206. FAIL. SAV tells me that it has been uninstalled but it has not. None of the solutions have worked and the program remains in App folder. 

install log:

  • Hello ff95,

    Thanks for the log, it confirms that it removed what it thought it should remove. Can you be a bit more specific about what files didn't get removed? I'm particularly interested about "Sophos related" files in the following locations:

    • /Library/Sophos Anti-Virus
    • /Library/LaunchDaemons
    • /Library/LaunchAgents
    • /Applications

    Thanks in advance.
