I believe there used to be a setting in the 20 day trial version that had a Revert button somewhere. I don't know if that still exists or not.

Have you tried uninstalling it ?
During an uninstall of one of the paid versions of avast you are usually given the option to install the free version.
Windows 10 Home 64bit/ Acer Aspire F15/ Intel Core i5 7200U 2.5GHz, 8GB DDR4 memory, 256GB SSD, 1TB HDD/ avast! free 24.3.6108 (build 24.3.8975.762) UI 1.0.801/ Firefox, uBlock Origin, uMatrix/ MailWasher Pro/ Avast! Mobile Security

Yes, I saw that, but I'm not sure if this is still present in avast 2016.

Whilst most of the interface appears the same there have been some omissions in underlying settings.

If its there great.
