You can go back to Avast 8.0.1497 but I’d rather want the issue to be resolved…
Anyways…
- Download the right aswclear and the appropriate program
Avast 8.0.1497 : http://www.filehippo.com/download_avast_antivirus/download/0c203d8e8244458c5da81998eb76f523/
v8 and below : http://www.avast.com/uninstall-utility
v9: http://files.avast.com/iavs9x/avastclear.exe
- Uninstall Avast by control panel [If you don’t have Avast in control Panel go to #4]
- Uninstall in safe mode using aswclear (v8 or below) or avastclear (v9) [If you don’t have Avast in control Panel just install it]
- Download and install your version
- Reboot.
Note : Once installed make sure you change program update TO MANUAL.
