So just installed the new update...

[theunyeti]

... and now, I can't turn on my firewall. Any insight as to what's happening here?

Repair avast!:
1. Control Panel -> Add/Remove programs -> avast!
2. Click on 'Repair'.
3. Follow instructions.
4. Reboot.

[theunyeti]

I went to the Programs & Features part of the Control Panel and found avast, but there was no repair option when I selected it. What do?
Also, running Windows 7.

- Which avast!..?? (IS/Premier)
- Which version..??
- OS..?? (32/64 Bit..? - which SP..?)
- Other security related software installed..??
- Which AV(s) did you use before avast!..??

[theunyeti]

1. Premier
2. 2014.9.0.2011, the most recent version, as I updated it just last night
3. Windows 7, 32-bit, I believe. What's an SP?
4. Super Anti-Spyware, which I installed last night as well, and promptly uninstalled this morning due to avast! acting up.
5. Er... does Windows Security Essentials count?

[Asyn]

Windows 7, 32-bit, I believe. What's an SP?

SP means Service Pack. SP1 would be the latest for W7. Do you have it installed..??

[theunyeti]

Yep. SP1 is installed.

1. Download avast! Premier Antivirus: http://files.avast.com/iavs9x/avast_premier_antivirus_setup.exe
2. Follow instructions: http://www.avast.com/uninstall-utility (Run this tool for all prior installed avast! versions..!!)
3. Reinstall avast! with the downloaded installer from point 1.
4. Reboot.

[theunyeti]

It worked! Thanks so much for your help!

[Asyn]

You're welcome.
