Win 7 Home Premium
Latest Version Of Avast Free Antivirus
Hello.
Goal: Install Newest Version (14.51.36231.0) Through Avast ‘Software Updater.’(The process is ‘usually’ straightforward).
Issue:‘Download’ then ‘Install’ is displayed followed by a ‘Failed’ status.
Troubleshooting: Rebooted PC and Ran Repair Utility but download still unsuccessful.
*Anyone have a fix?
**Also, I can view this post under ‘My Posts’ but why isn’t it visible in ‘The Avast Free Antivirus’ Forum?
There certainly ‘are’ multiple glitches.
‘Apparently,’ there was a 90 min ‘delay’ between ‘thread submission’ and ‘thread posting.’
Version (14.51.36231.0) is not compatible with Windows 7.
