Avast fails to run properly on Windows 10547

No I am using AIS but the base programme is the same.   

I had also been plagued with a flashing white screen when restarting.  This was cured by stopping two reporting services .. Go figure

Strange, I rolled mine back and will now have to wait till the next release to comes out to
to do another upgrade.

Did you have the same problem ?

Yes I did. Also had a problem that it would boot into a desktop that was totally different from mine.
Couldn't shut down the system always needed to do a power button shutdown.
It usually took two tries to boot into the correct desktop.

Yep that is what I had.  Touch wood, since I stopped those services reboots are normal

At once stage I thought my graphics card was going

My feeling also. I was getting ready to contact Dell since this Laptop is still under warranty.

Have you tried doing a repair of Avast
Program and Features > select Avast > then select Repair. When the repair is finished, reboot your computer.
See if that solves your problem.

I can't remember to be honest, but i have installed it 4 times and each time it fails to load the console and stops Windows restarting or shutting down.

Maybe  i will try again tomorrow then try a repair.

Probably a combination of windows 10 and other programmes creating a conflict with Avast

If you rolled-back, you could also do a System Restore back to before you began accepting the upgrade.  Then it will let you upgrade again.... but FIRST, uninstall Avast

Sorry but I'll keep Avast and stay with Windows 10 build 10532 for now.

Well 5th time lucky at installing Avast Free on build 10547 and it is all working, not sure why but these are the steps i used this time.

1. Closed Comodo firewall
2. Change the Avast default install folder to Avast2015
3. Cancelled the quick scan after installation
4. Closed down the PC from the Start Menu
5. Restarted

After the above all seems to be running normal, maybe it was Comodo, but that has never been an issue before, so i am a happy Avast user again.
