I’m trying to download and instal Avast Free Antivirus on a Windows 8.1 pc. The problem is It won’t download completely and instal it. The download starts but It just gets stuck and keeps going for hours. It’s impossible to instal It. What could be causing this? Is there anything on my pc that could be blocking this. There used to be bullguard on It which is removed.
I did remove Bullguard exactly as is described on their website before downloading Avast Free Antivirus. I did notice that Windows defender was turned off but after the removal of Bullguard It turned on automatically. Could this have something to do with It?
No, it is Windows who turns off defender when another av is installed (Windows 10)
On other windows version it is normally the av that gets installed that turns defender off.
Please run Farbar and attach two logs (FRST.txt and Addition.txt) to your next post.
