Title: Tired of BS Server Side Installs
Post by: REDACTED on March 17, 2018, 04:07:35 PM

MY OS: Windows 10
VERSION 1709
BUILD: 16299.309
 
First, I have an exorbitant amount of experience in IT. I entered the Industry in 1995 at 38 as an MCSE.

I am extremely feed up with these f**kin' idiots in corporations trying to control everything and everybody.
I just download Avast Free.

The install jammed up at about 96%. THIS IS BS! ! !

Now! to you Avast "Experts". WTF do I do to square this away !? And after I get it done. Where can I download a stand alone installer?

I'll be looking forward to your input!

To Avast... I'm feed up with wasting time! "You've been around long enough" to have "Direct Support" with a telephone number or Live Chat.

Regards,
StageMan57

No. It just jammed up! So I opened Task manager and killed the install process. 

I'm just going to reinstall using the "standalone installer" provided to me by Asyn!

Thanks Asyn !

And by the way... WTF is up with the BS Captcha that's hard to read, before we can post.
It makes no f**kin' sense. We have to log our asses in here to read and post !
