Hello syf,

Welcome to the community! Please refer to the article below on how to disable Armor. And if it say's Armor is expired, the service is off and you should have nothing to worry about.

Thank you Christian.

At step 4 of your instructions, it takes me to buy the Armor software. I do not want to buy the software to be able to disable it.

I cannot access the control panal for Armor because everytime I click on 'Security", it talke me to a page to buy Armor software.

I need to delete this trial version because it is blocking sites on my network that my children need to access for school.

Please Help me - this is not acceptable behaviour to make people buy your software!
