Perhaps already reported …
Sorry, this should be AVAST 9 Free
But, what was the error ?
If you don’t say what the error was we can’t really help.
Last encountered error: Unknown error
Try a repair of avast:
XP - Add Remove programs, select ‘avast! Anti-Virus,’ click the Change/Remove button and select Repair, click next and follow.
Vista, win7 - Control Panel, Programs & Features, uninstall a program, select ‘avast! Anti-Virus,’ click the Uninstall/Change and select Repair, click next and follow.
You may need to reboot after the repair.
Same error, I included a screen copy:
Normally I would now suggest downloading the full virus definitions database (http://www.avast.com/download-update), but the database is different in avast 9.0 (2014) and I don’t know if they have that available yet.
There are only two options for avast! VPS update (previously for avast 5,6,7 & 8 ) and for avast! 4 VPS update, for avast 4.8. Since avast! 9 has a slightly different database format I suspect it will require the additional VPS Update for avast! 9.
So for now I would wait and see if the next auto update (or manual update from the avastUI) resolves itself.
Yes, you can get it here: http://files.avast.com/ivps9x/vpsupd.exe
Thanks for that.
Why now that 2014 has been officially release it should be added to the regular download-update page.
@ wdwpower
Try downloading that update to your hard disk, double click on it and that should hopefully update your database and correct the error.
- You’re welcome Dave.
- Absolutely. Maybe next week…!?? (The uninstaller page isn’t updated either yet.)
Thanks all.
