This is different to what the OP is trying to do - Uninstall the Program when the Avast Program settings are protected by password. Not clear the Avast Account password.
Thanks David. i will leave it to the expert.
No problem, I’m not an expert, just been at it a while - I even gave a link to the free version for the Op which I have now changed to the Premium version he has installed.
