U3 Smart Edition

Avast Free Antivirus / Premium Security

Hi.

As there´s no specific forum for the U3 smart edition of avast (could be a good idea open one?), i open this topic here.

My problem is that i´m not able to install from the sandisk u3 smart download center the avast antivirus u3 edition. It downloads, but when has to install says that could not do it.

The only point i have in mind is the making, as the problem is in a Traveller u3 smart drive, not in a Sandisk u3 smart drive (where i had no problems).

Someone else with similar problems, or i´m the only one (in that case, maybe it´s the unit itself the problem).

Regards.

Try installing the regular (non-Sandisk) version from our website: http://www.avast.com/eng/download-avast-u3.html

Hi vlk,

What is the current version number for the U3 Edition? I downloaded what I think was 1.0.97 back in July. Has the program been updated since then?

Thanks.

Hello

I’ve updated the U3 Edition from my sandisk drive, but ever since then I get a message saying “An error has ocurred while trying to start the selected program” I was going to download it again but since the version I have was bundled with the drive I don’t have a license key to install the new one.

What can I do??

Thanks!!

As far as I know, the versions bundled with Sandisk drives are basically only preinstalled - and you can purchase the avast! license cheaper than for other vendors; they don’t contain a full license when you buy the drive.
So, you don’t really have to worry about removing and reinstalling it.
