Going from Avast 6 free to Avast full 6

Avast Free Antivirus / Premium Security
1

Ok I need to roll back to 6. I just can’t make version 7 work properly.

I have the download for the last version of Avast free 6. I uninstalled 7 with the uninstall tool and installed version 6. I was able through trial and error to insert my current license file which upgraded it to Internet security. I found that the Firewall was not installed, so I went to the control panel and tried to add it via change features. What it did instead was to download version 7 and install that instead.

So how do you turn avast 6 free into avast 6 internet security without being forced to upgrade to version 7 when you try to add the firewall back???

It’s not a good idea to downgrade… Which problems are you facing?

It’s not a good idea to downgrade… Anyway, I suggest an installation from the scratch:

  1. Uninstall avast from Control Panel first.
  2. Boot.
  3. Use Avast Uninstall for complete uninstallation.
  4. Boot.
  5. Stay off-line (not connected to Internet)
  6. Install again the old version: http://filehippo.com/download_avast_antivirus/
  7. Boot.
    Set the program updates to manual.
    Go online.
  8. Register avast or insert the license file.

Will it work?
