- remove all temporary files form that system
- download Avast again
- install it

Does this work?

nope .. Have tried it 3x and still same error during setup.

Yaps


edit* Also getting this error message

Avast.setup unable to locate component

this application has failed to start because aswCmnOS.dll was not found, Reinstalling the Application may fix the problem.


Iv also used the Avast removal tool to complately uninstall Avast before reinstalling.
