Secureline won't Reinstall (Resolved)

Avast SecureLine VPN Avast SecureLine VPN for Windows
1

I was running both Avast Premier and Secureline (Standalone) on HP Compaq Win10 64Bit.
I went back to W 10 default Security to test something. Uninstalled Avast Premier from Control Panel. Then ran Avastclear.exe in SafeMode. (Twice)
Uninstalled Secureline from Control Panel because it wasn’t showing up in programs like in the past (Not sure why) with the intent of reinstalling to resolve the missing Secureline entry in Programs.

Secureline now refuses to install providing an internet connection message (Screenshot)
The internet is working fine as I’m here posting.
I still have 6months License and was using on this machine.
Has me baffled. Any ideas on how to get Secureline installed again.

I’ve attempted install several times and reboots.

Have you contacted support?

Nope
Hoping for input here first.

Hi, try the full installer: https://files.avast.com/tools/secureline/avast_secureline_setup.exe

Thanks Asyn
The previous attempts, I downloaded from Avast Website…Secureline.
I’ll give it a try. :slight_smile:

NP pal, report back.

No different. The same error message. :-
I have a suspicion and am tempted to reinstall Premier. I wonder if uninstalling Avast left an issue with Secureline.
Guess I’ll proceed that way so I have info for support when I go that road.
Don’t know why uninstalling the Premier installation would mess up Secureline however I remember a year or so ago I uninstalled Avast only to have internet connection issues afterwards.
Will get back.

Check if any of the tools you’re testing is blocking it.

Yes that’s the first thing I considered.
The only other Securiy software (tools) I have installed on this HP Compaq are WinPatrol and Voodoo Shield.
Neither has ever caused problems in the years I’ve run them.

According to your sig you also run WFC, did you check that…!?

11

Yes that’s correct
I have set WF to default settings and uninstalled WFC, that was the culprit!
Thanks alot for your time Asyn.
Very helpful :wink:

You’re welcome. :slight_smile:

Reinstalled WFC and all is fine. Secureline up and running.
I now know what to look at if any other Internet issues arise.
