Not Able to Update or Uninstall my Avast because of an error

Here’s the log sir.

There is one registry entry that still needs to be dealt with; I will attend to that this evening. But I am a little confused as the poster of the log is not the same as the originator of the thread ???

Probably posting from another account, the IP is the same.

I would like to see if this rids the errant registry key …

Download attached fixlist.txt file and save it to the Desktop:

Both files, FRST and fixlist.txt have to be in the same location or the fix will not work!

Sir, i’ve already attached my fixlog.txt file twice i think.

Is it being deleted? is my problem fixed now?

TIA

Follow the instructions in Reply #23.

Hello Again Sir! I’m sorry if i just replied now. Just got back from a vacation.

And also i think i’ve logged in to another account.

I just made the Fix now as you’ve instructed and attached is the Log.

I tried to run again my Avast Free Antivirus but still not working.

Please download a fresh install of Avast Free from here.

Please download the uninstall tool (avastclear) from here.

Uninstall Avast Free from your system (from the standard Add / Remove Programs utility). Reboot your system and then run the Avastclear.exe removal tool. Reboot your system and then install the new copy of Avast Free.

Hi Sir dbrisendine !!

Finally! My Avast Free Anti Virus now works.

Thank you so much for your big help! :slight_smile:

You are most welcome!
