how do i turn avast on? i just got it new!
Avast! scans you 24/7 while the computers on but if you want to turn it on, you double click the shortcut on your desktop or you right click the icon on the taskbar and select Start Avast.
It should run automatically. Are you experiencing any problem that might lead you to believe it isn’t running ?
What avast processes are running in Task Manager, they begin with ash or asw, see image ?
avast should be always run… as resident.
