I have a trial version of an Antivirus on my computer, that came with it, since it’s new. It runs out very soon, but I don’t like it. How can i safely and completely remove this Antivirus, and completely install a new one to protect my computer?

P.S. this antivirus shuts off my firewall and all that, because it has its own, when i remove this AV will i be able to turn it back on, or do most AV’s come with their own firewall
