Hi, As with most software applications, I try before I buy. I will be using an information I learn here for my next blog post. If you would like credit, or prefer not to be quoted, please message me a note. Thank you.
I am trying to install the Avast free version and it will not run.
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Same results.
The avast! Antivirus service is not running.
It complains it cannot start a dependency.
The dependencies are:
- AswMonFlt (cannot find any such entry in services)
-- FltMgr (cannot find any such entry in services)
- Remote Procedure Call (RPC) (started)
-- DCOM Server Process Launcher (started)
-- RPC Endpoint Mapper (started)
Please tell me more about FltMgr, where I should be able to find it, why it might not be running, if this is a known problem with the Avast free version. Recommended next steps Thank you.
