Windows 8 Pro
« on: October 23, 2013, 11:38:17 AM »
I have a problem turning on the Avast firewall in windows 8 pro. I have had Avast suite already installed but on installing Windows 8 Pro I just get a message "unable to start firewall". My network is set to private and I had to turn on windows own firewall, please can you help as I must have some setting wrong. Thanks
