I am having a similar problem. All of a sudden Avast shows as "unsecured" and "Not registred" 0 days remaining. Repair or resolve all doesn't work. Tried uninstalling, reinstalling, and registered for a new key- worked until I rebooted then it was back to unsecured "not registered". Been using Avast for years but this is new.
Ideally this should be in your own new topic as it may not be the same issue.
This is for both of you to try if it doesn't work for
Dezarius then please start your own new topic so as not to confuse this one.
- Download the latest version of avast, 8.0.1483
http://files.avast.com/iavs5x/avast_free_antivirus_setup.exe and save it to your HDD, somewhere you can find it again (if you didn't save your last download). Use that when you reinstall.
- Download the avast! Uninstall Utility, aswClear.exe
find it here and save it to your HDD (it has uninstall tools for all versions).
- 1. Now uninstall avast! (using add remove programs, if you can't do that (as appears to be the case) start from the next step), reboot.
- 2. run the avast! Uninstall Utility, it will request it be run from safe mode (and will handle the boot into safe mode), first for 7.x if previously installed and then for 8.0, once complete reboot into normal mode.
- 3. install the latest version, reboot.
This needs to be followed exactly including running the uninstall for the previous and current version of avast.
