1:spyware and unwanted software protection ( important )
windows defender and avast anti virus both report that they are turned off
2:virus protection ( important )
avast anti virus reports that it is turned off
First off I do not use windows defender because it is a complete joke and it is ALWAYS turned off by me!!!
Anyways, both of these issues popped up after installing avast latest build thru the update button inside avast.
I have rebooted several times and nothing changes and I still have the two warnings in the action center on my wife’s win 7 pc.
Before I start all the crazy diagnostic stuff has anybody else seen this problem? Should I try a REPAIR? A CLEAN UNINSTALL IN SAFE MODE/ REINSTALL etc,etc.etc
I am not going to click on IGNORE warnings in the action center because it should not be doing this in the first place.
I run avast premier and malwarebytes pro and that’s it.
I’ve read of others instances of this occurring and have had it occur myself some time back. If a reboot has not cleared the issue it really is no bother to go ahead and do a Repair and then Reboot.
Clean Install as final option only takes maybe 15minutes.
So I download the uninstall tool and ran it in safe mode then booted up and did a fresh install of premier and now everything is fine and the problem has been resolved.
The ability to repair or uninstall in safe mode is a great feature. Some other AV products (which shall remain nameless) don’t provide this, and actually yield errors instead. Stupid is as stupid does, I guess…
