How do I diable avast 4.8 without deleting it from my pc and having to re-install it?
Do you mind answering why you need to do this (as it really shouldn’t be necessary) ?
Right click the avast ‘a’ icon, select Stop on-access protection or Pause the Standard Shield, it entirely depends on the above question as to the best solution.
Why are you still using version 4.8 and not the 5.0 ?
I want to re-install my os and they stress to disable any anti virus programs on the pc>
Indeed, if you will reinstall your OS or upgrade it, you could (should) uninstall your antivirus first.
well if you re-install the OS the AV will be gone too then ;D >>> you can’t keep programs unless just repairing or upgrading.
