Windows 10: Microsoft Security vs Trend Micro

Can someone tell me if it is necessary to use another security program ie. Trend Micro if a new computer comes with Microsoft Security?

undetectable Trend Micro Internet Security 2008

Hello, I am trying to upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 10. I performed the quick check, and it stated that everything was compatible except I needed to uninstall Trend Micro Internet Security 2008, as it wasn't compatible with the upgrade. I've exhausted
every option on Trend Micro's website to complete and uninstall, to no avail. It cannot be found. There is no listing of Trend Micro on my computer, whatsoever, and after installing their uninstall tool, and completing all instructions, restarting, etc.,
Windows 10 cannot complete the upgrade.

Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated, as I'm stumped.

 

Trend Micro

Windows 10 will not upgrade to the latest because it says that Trend Micro Internet Security 2009 is installed.
I have searched for any file with "Trend*.* in the file name anywhere on C drive.
I then searched the registry for the same. Having failed to find anything so far, I then searched the entire registry with no luck.
I then searched INSIDE of all files on the C drive and failed to find anything.
I have also used the removal tools provided by Trend on their website such as:

• Ti_120_win_en_Tool_TMRemnantFileRemoveTool_hfb001.exe

and

• Ti_120_win_en_Tool_UninstallTool_hfb0001.exe

None of the above has solved my problem. How can I fix this?

Thanks in advanced.

 

windows 10 upgrade fail - need to uninstall Trend Micro Internet Security 2008

I am attempting a Windows 10 update, version 1709 and at about 25% update, it says Trend Micro Internet Security 2009 and Trend Micro Internet Security 2008 needs to be uninstalled. Trend Micro does not appear on my list of programs to uninstall. I downloaded
and ran the Trend Micro Uninstall Tool but that did not work either. I still have the same message and can't update Windows.
