« on: September 21, 2012, 12:52:12 PM »
Hi, I recently just moved into a house and set-uped my new computer which I haven't used in like a year.
I downloaded Avast 7 and tried to install it here's the error:

I've tried using aswclear, I've cleared avast 6 and avast 7. Same error.
I've also tried updating/repairing Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 (http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=11895) same error.

Please help!

I'm using windows 7 home premium and my last protection was avast or avg, I'm unsure as it was a year ago.
I've also used the remove avg tool to.

From the error report it does state access denied, which is unusual

No other AV's are evident.

The programme is not being installed at all, not even creating the directory

Looking at the reg key it is trying to access .. There is not one at that location on my win7

Delete the current setup copy on your desktop and download from the direct link  here

Then retry

Can you just post the error displayed to the screen as your copy and paste in the first topic lists more than one error.

Has any part of avast been installed ?
e.g. is there an avast entries in the Task Manager for avastUI.exe (most likely as the icon would have the Red X) and avastSvc.exe, this is the main scanning engine of avast ?

Did you run the avast setup (installation) file from an administrator account ?
Windows 10 Home 64bit/ Acer Aspire F15/ Intel Core i5 7200U 2.5GHz, 8GB DDR4 memory, 256GB SSD, 1TB HDD/ avast! free 24.2.6105 (build 24.2.8918.824) UI 1.0.799/ Firefox, uBlock Origin, uMatrix/ MailWasher Pro/ Avast! Mobile Security

No sign of avast in task manager, and yep I do run as administrator.
