What Service Pack is installed>
Operating System? It’s 64bit, but what is the OS? Windows 7,8,10?
What previous antivirus did it have prior to Avast?
Have you tried a repair of avast via add/remove?
Thanks for your reply - its Win 7 64bit. And I have had Avast for years now. But I did recently reload Win7 and restarted the whole process again. Never had this problem before. I have knocked anything out that is greedy like Windows media and other software that isn’t relevant to the operating system.
That is it. I haven’t done anything to change avast. except now I have put the updates on manual load up which I will now have to do once a day
