Hello, so for the past couple of days I’ve been trying to update Avast and the program will just sit at the “STEP 1/2 Initializing, pleases wait… Overall progress:” and the update bar will not move. If anyone has any advice I appreciate it.
Have you tried a repair? Uninstall Programs/ Avast/ Uninstall/ Repair and reboot when completed.
Yeah, its not listed in there, I think this had lead me to a whole new can of crap.
You mean avast is not listed in remove programs ??? if so then I’d suggest downloading a fresh copy of avast and saving and also download the avast clear tool http://files.avast.com/iavs9x/avastclear.exe
Run the clear tool which will ask for permission to reboot to safe mode where it will continue, run the tool for all versions of avast ever installed and reboot back to normal mode when finished then install the fresh avast copy saved previously.
