Recently updated to the latest Avast Free Antivirus 2016.11.2.2261 on my Windows 8.1 64-bit PC, selecting components File Shield, Web Shield, Mail Shield, Software Updater and Browser Cleanup only.
If I select Manage Accounts (or my login name) the Avast GUI crashes and restarts itself and if I select Mange Accounts again, the Avast GUI crashes again.
I tried a repair and got the Failed to load language DLL [1033\UILangRes.dll] error and the Avast GUI crashed when selecting Manage Accounts. I then tried the Avast uninstall utility and reinstalled but still the Avast GUI crashes when selecting Manage Accounts.
Thinking my PC may have a problem, I decided to install Avast Free Antivirus 2016.11.2.2261 on another Windows 8.1 64-bit PC, selecting the same components on install and lo and behold, the Avast GUI crashes when selecting Manage Accounts (and on repair the same Failed to load language DLL [1033\UILangRes.dll] error).
Please advise?
... UPDATE: I have rolled back to Avast Free Antivirus 2016.11.1.2253. No problem selecting Manage Accounts OR my login name.
