Title: Can't update or uninstall
Post by: Alnitak50 on December 27, 2012, 12:04:44 AM
When I do, I get an error to this effect:

Error reading product data from C:\program files\alwil software\avast5\setup\part-setup_ais-509.vpx. Setup cannot continue.  Can't update virus definitions or uninstall.  Not sure how to fix.  Any ideas?  Tried installing definitions manually, get the same error.

Thanks!
