hello to everybody.somebody can say me why my avast 4.8.1335 takes 8 or 10 minutes before opening the interface to make the av scan.my os is vista home premium,processor intel double heart 1.6 gh,RAM 2gb.this is the unique trouble because the program works very well in backgr.and i’m very satisfied.
thanks
Do you use any other antivirus in your computer?
Can you try to repair your installation?
Go to Control Panel > Add/Remove programs > avast! antivirus > Remove. Then choose Repair function in the popup window (Repair).
If this does not help, can you uninstall / boot / install / boot again?
Have (or did) you another AV installed in this system, if so what was it and how did you get rid of it ?
What other security applications do you have installed, anti-spyware, firewall (versions), etc. ?
thanks for the fast answeres,i have installed in my pc even asquared free version and on line armor free ed.firewall,but i don’t think that this is the problem because i have already deinstalled both of them and the situation did not improved.now i try to repair the installation like tech said and watch what’s matter.
thanks
see you tomorrow :
hello,
i have repaired the program using control pannel and now is starts perfectly(about 2 minutes from the memory scan starting).
thank you very much tech ;D
I would have though the boot would have been quicker, is that much different from what it was before avast ?
Try setting Online Armor to learning/training mode (whatever it is called, I don’t use it), I don’t know if that might be getting in the way of what avast is doing on boot.
