Title: Windows 10
Post by: REDACTED on October 02, 2014, 11:23:39 AM

Hello!

Just wanted to say that Avast is not working on the Windows 10 Tech Preview for me. I know it's not officially supported but I thought I should report this here.

Online installer is blocked by Windows for incompatibility; and

Offline installer for v. 9.0.2021.515 fails after 2 seconds of loading with the message "The installer is unable to initialize early avast! self-defense with error 0x00000005! Aborting!"

Compatibility mode is not working either.

Anybody else got any ideas?

Thanks. Sorry for the redundancy. That post did not show up on search for some reason.
