Since the last update to the free version every time I boot my PC I get a window to complete the update and offering to instal Crome.
Is this a permanant feature in the free version?
No it is not, what version did you have prior to the update ?
no…try this
controlpanel > ad/remove programs > avast > uninstall/change > repair option…wait a minute and reboot
any change?
if not go for a new clean install http://www.avast.com/en-eu/uninstall-utility / http://www.avast.com/en-eu/download-software
Is this the window that you get (see image, click to expand) ?
If so can you see the Continue button on the screen and if you can, did you click it (and uncheck the Chrome options) ?
Some netbooks or other low resolution monitors can’t see all of this screen (e.g. the Continue button), failure to click on that (closing the window using the X top right) would result in it being displayed on the next boot.
Thanks Pondus. The repair didn’t help so I did the uninstal and re-instal and now it works normaly.
