hope it will be fixed soon...

Edit:
- Downgraded to Avast 2015 Free to previous version 2015.10.2.2218
-> http://public.avast.com/~havel/2218/avast_free_antivirus_setup.exe

- Disabled automatic ProgramUpdates
- Reapplied saved configuration
-> All Office 365 apps working flawless again *happy*

Next:
- Waiting for a working update *smiles*

I had a similar issue with XP. None of my Microsoft programs would open. I'm curious of any previous posters in this thread were able to use Windows Media Player. I've read that if WMP is blocked from accessing the internet it causes the operating system to freeze.

Same in my computer - Win 8.1

I suggest to install last version without problem: http://public.avast.com/~havel/2218/avast_pro_antivirus_setup.exe

It helps me.

Yes can go to oldapps.com to get prevoius version of avast, you are always safe when you have an uptodate virus database. Im still on Version 2014.9.0.2021. & No issues. Just wait until a patch is out

Thank you for that, it works on Windows x64 Pro! I edited the link so I could get Internet security: "http://public.avast.com/~havel/2218/avast_internet_security_setup.exe" and I can confirm that it works great. So either that version or uninstall helps in this case. Can someone post an update if it gets fixed? I will stick to this rollback version 'till the solution arrives. Thnak you again!

You're welcome. I did the same - original link was http://public.avast.com/~havel/2218/avast_free_antivirus_setup.exe and I changed it to pro. I hope Avast will repair it soon...

Hi guys,

can you provide me ID of your support packages?

This could be helpful for us in this situation. We'll check the situation in detail.


Please into the PM or directly to the my email - radil@avast.com.

Thanks a lot.

I also met the same problem. I sent 2 weeks ago AVAST all information and error codes without answer...
Right now I have had to restore my computer with an older backup (Ghost) and I locked the Avast software update (libraries can be updated)

Best regards

Strange, I use office 2013 on almost a daily basis. Currently on Windows 10 and have no problems at all
Also had no problems while on Windows 8.1.

Thanks for letting me know. I was just about to buy an avast! Pro license but this has turned me away

Letting you know that I have NO problems certainly isn't a reason not to get Avast

Perhaps promising.

Hi,

we already have fix for Outlook 2003, it will be released in  next few days. Regarding the Office 2013 issues we weren't able to reproduce it yet, but working on it.

Just finished uploading an Avast support file

I have Program version 10.3.2225 and when I open Office 2013 I get the error

The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000005). Click OK to close the application

I uninstalled and reinstalled Office, still the same issue. Uninstalled Avast (while Office still installed) and it opened fine. Very frustrating having to uninstall and reinstall Avast whenever I need to use Office.

I'm on Windows 7 64-bit also
