Ignore this post - no clean install is needed.

I would advise a clean install to users to rule out corrupt installs.

You need to perform a clean install:

1.Download your version of avast! and the avastclear tool.

http://files.avast.com/iavs9x/avast_free_antivirus_setup_offline.exe

http://files.avast.com/iavs9x/avast_pro_antivirus_setup_offline.exe

http://files.avast.com/iavs9x/avast_internet_security_setup_offline.exe

http://files.avast.com/iavs9x/avast_premier_antivirus_setup_offline.exe


Download Avast Clear Tool

2. Uninstall Avast by control panel  [If you don't have Avast in control Panel go to #3]
3. Uninstall in safe mode using Avastclear. [Running Avastclear is normal mode will give a prompt to go into Safe Mode]
Check : Once uninstalled check in device manager>view>show hidden devices if there is anything related to avast with a yellow triangle.. if so, uninstall it and reboot.
5. Install the version you downloaded.
6. Reboot.

Free: If you have the Free version, register the product for free for a year from the avast! UI.
Paid: If you have a paid license, insert the license key/activation code after the reboot at stage 6.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. It's better to ask than make a mistake and start over again with the process.
I tried many time and is not working

Same problem. I manually update Avast Free and after updating to this version (12.2.2276) it did not work at all. I uninstalled with Control Panel (and Avast Clear in Safe Mode) and reinstalled twice with no improvement. Avast is now uninstalled and I am using Windows Defender.

Ok...

It seems like there is an issue with 12.2 2276 on build 12.2.3126

This could be due to the emergency updater or just a bad update.

I will try to get some attention to this.

I've been able to contact someone from Avast. Hopefully she can reach the right party to solve this problem.
Please be a little patient. It's the weekend and the middle of the night in Prague.

Okay, but not is possible that Avast Team not tested before and yet not launch correction of emergency. The Team is slow in moment.
