Hi. My Avast doesn’t start at Windows startup. I don’t see the Avast tray icon. I had the latest Avast version throug update, so I did a clean install today with the latest version of Avast and I’m having the same problem.
I started the Windows Start Manager and there’s two Avast services running, but the antivirus is not working. Instead, I have right now a Windows alert that reads “Turn On Windows Security Center Service”.
I didn’t do anything special in my laptop. No new software or anything. Just browsing around with Google Chrome.
What previous antivirus did you have prior to Avast?
I had the previous version of Avast 2015. I did an Update trough the software when 2015 arrived.
Did you do a repair of avast via add/remove?
No, I did a clean install because fro some reason, Avast wasn’t working at startup and when I tried to start the software from my start menu, it didn’t. So I did a Clean install.
Edit:
I did a repair via add/remove. No diference. Avast isn’t running. I tried so many things and nothing. Tried cleaning Windows with Ccleaner, Defrag the HDD, Defrag the Registry, Optimizing Windows, Installing the latest windows update… installing Avast from fresh and nothing…
