REINSTALL AVAST PRO

I have been trying to upgrade a laptop - Win 7 to Win 10 … and have failed on numerous occasions, Windows reverts back to Win 7. The latest attempt
failed and resulted in the Avast service being hung in a ‘starting’ state… tried everything I know to stop the service, no luck. I tried a repair and recycled the laptop, no luck, still stuck in the ‘starting’ state.

I then uninstalled Avast… now, what do I do to reinstall it ? can’t seem to locate anything on the Avast website… Anyone provide the steps I need to follow to get and install Avast Pro again ? thanks

  1. Download Avast Pro Antivirus: https://files.avast.com/iavs9x/avast_pro_antivirus_setup_offline.exe
  2. Follow instructions: https://www.avast.com/uninstall-utility (Run this tool for all prior installed Avast versions…!!)
  3. Reinstall Avast with the downloaded installer from point 1.
  4. Reboot.
