Hi All

Windows 10 Pro x64 16299.192
Avast 17.9.2322 17.9.3761.278

Problem: Looked in my Task Scheduler, and some reason I don’t see Avast Emergency update in there at all, so perhaps why I had so much trouble getting the Meltdown Patch for my Intel I7 Desktop that was released on January 3rd/4th 2018

I have tried repair install, up to a clean install, but still not listed there, any advice would be appreciated, I can manually recreate entry if need be

I’m not sure if this isn’t a hidden Task Schedule in win10, I can see it in my XP System.

I have the registry entry, that said I ran the AvEmUpdate.exe as Administrator and also did a manual program update (which should also run the EM Update) and rebooted.

Edit: Typo.

Yeah I had the registry entry for the Meltdown Patch, ended up installing via the Windows Update Catalog, yeah guess could be a hidden task, not really sure on that aspect, but I guess all is fine possibly
