I have an HP Envy laptop running Windows 8. I installed Avast Internet Security yesterday, and ever since, my iTunes will not open, or briefly open and then crash. I am incredibly frustrated, as I paid for 2 year of this Internet Security Software, but if it does not allow iTunes to run I will have to get rid of it. I can't live without iTunes.
iTunes does open in safe mode, where all plugins are inactive, so I think it has something to do with Avast inserting itself into iTunes somehow? I cannot figure this out for the life of me, but it needs to be fixed. Thank you!
