In all cases AVG 2012 slowed the PCs down but to differnet degrees.
AVG OR AVAST FREE WINDOWS 7
If using Windows 7 it can still be a problem and should be avoided.
AVG OR AVAST FREE PC
The old Dell PC with XP uninstalled as it should have with the soft ware being cleaned out and as far as I can see now residue from AVG.įrom this experience it appears AVG works well with XP but is a night mare if installed on Vista.
This PC was very slow but now works as it should with a i5 processor. It took a while to uninstall and I had to tidy up the registry.
Uninstalling from Windows 7 was a bit easier. There are still problems wit the PC but it is getting beter but no thanks to AVG. This weekend I have uninstalled AVG 2012 from three PCs with 3 different OS
AVG OR AVAST FREE SOFTWARE
I have now loaded Norton which I have used previously and still lives up to expectations with out intruding on my work, the PC cruises now instead of crawling along with the AVG anti virus on board.įor the Techies I have a Core 2 Duo processor and 3 gig of RAM and 1 Tb hard drive more than enough to run Flash software and Photoshop at the same time. I would never ever recommend any one installing AVG 2012. Prior to AVG I had Macafee which is not ideal but better than AVG grinding my PC to a almost halt. In the end I had to manually delete the AVG files in the registry which has taken me all afternoon. Their product IS defective.ĪVG sounds like a good option to paid for anti virus but it slows down your PC and when like me you try to uninstal AVG it takes you around the houses by not completely uninstalling. Guess what? I still get the popup saying the AVG product is defective. I have tried using the removal tools as directed at I have tried re-installing AVG antivirus 2013. I have tried uninstalling AVG PC TuneUp and was told the product was defective.
AVG OR AVAST FREE INSTALL
Please install the AVG product again to correct the problem. The installation of this AVG product is defective. I had to do a Windows repair, going back to my last Windows update. During the installation, AVG PC TuneUp crashed my Windows 7 and and when I rebooted I could not start Windows. In a fit of insanity, I did so and have regretted it ever since. Unfortunately it also installed a demo version of AVG PC TuneUp that kept poping up a window saying my installation had problems and I should purchase AVG PC TuneUp. I updated to the latest AVG antivirus 2013 having used it for several years without problems. This product is defective and can harm your Windows installation! After all, antivirus software is usually renowned for its ruggedness for obvious reasons.ĭo NOT install AVG PC Tuneup. Even when I'm able to install it, it's now a dog of a program to use.Īlso, yuh really have to wonder what the hell's going on at AVG when the installer repeatedly crashes across multiple machines. I used to recommend AVG to clients but no longer. If AVG cannot even get the program's installer to work without error messages then it says precious little for the product as a whole! Fileforum, why this change, won't AVG let you have the real thing?
AVG OR AVAST FREE FULL
Moreover, I'm not going to bother trying this version, as it and earlier versions are not the full package but just downloaders. Also, from other internet reports, it seems that I'm not alone in having AVG's install fail. Even a clean Windows 7 installation breaks these versions of AVG (although earlier versions from last year will still install). Simply WILL NOT install on my Win 7 64-bit, machines. The full downloads/off-line installation files such as:
and I guarantee, you will be free of problems. I recommend all those who have faced similar issues to use a cloud based AV, with Comodo FW (which has some AV features) with a back up scanner such as Malwarebytes, and a browser protection software - Malwarebytes Antiexploit. I suppose a cloud based AV loads a lot less stuff on your PC, and therefore is lighter and less prone to causing problems of incompatibility and the like. Although it is just a few days old, I faced no such issues. I have now decided I had enough of this overly aggressive junk, and installed Panda cloud AV.
I then switched to Avira, and found it turned ON the Windows firewall, although I had Comodo FW installed, and then the frequent freezing and crashing of the OS, disabling of my touchpad etc. This one would cause freezing of my OS (Win8 on a Dell Inspiron 3537), each time there was a major AV update. I have realized now that these vendors are in overdrive mode, cramming more aggressive features that mess up with the OS and other security software.
