I was helping a friend… well, the short of it is that I turned off the monitor during a scan and she wasn’t thinking this morning and ‘turned on’ the pc. Yeah, it was still on, it was just the monitor that was off. She was supposed to turn the monitor on and check the scan results.
So, my friend shut the power off and now the pc will only boot in safe mode. Avast will not start in safe mode, so I have no idea what to do. System restore is off.
Which version of avast are you using?
You should be able to run avast and restore from Chest, uninstall avast, anything (except turn on the protection).
Well, I couldn’t get the program to start at all to access the chest so, I tried to repair through Add/Remove programs while in safe mode. That didn’t work, either so I uninstalled it. The pc still won’t boot except in safe mode.
