Hello!
I downloaded Grimefighter about a month ago, and have been trying to get it to work, with little luck. Now, my computer is overheating, and I have to reboot frequently as my task bar becomes unresponsive. When I run Grimefighter (Windows 7- Home edition), I get to the reboot part. I reboot my computer, and get the sedating message. Then, about 2 minutes after the computer is “sedated” it does an emergency shutdown for overheating (I do not hear the fan running at ALL during this). I wait a few minutes, restart the computer, and it gives me the notice that it shut down due to extreme temps, and offers to start up in safe mode. If I start windows back up normally, it starts right up, everything loads as normal, with no sign of Grimefighter. After a few hours, though, the system starts to bog down, and I end up having to reboot, again. I have searched the forum, and I can’t find anyone else mentioning this same problem (overheating). Any suggestions??
Hi and welcome;
You can open a ‘support ticket’ Here: https://support.avast.com/
Explain your issue in detail, if a solution is not reached you can request a refund through the same support ticket process.
Please keep in mind that this process in a slow one, it can take 7-10 Buisness Days (2 weeks) if there are no backlogs of support requests. Don’t submit numerous tickets as this only impedes the process further.
If you want to uninstall GrimeFighter go to Control Panel> Programs/features> Choose Avast> Uninstall/Change then scroll to “Change” in Avast Setup options> Untick Grimefighter under TOOLS then reboot.
Let me know how it goes.
When was the last time you removed all dust from inside the system?
