If what you say is true then YOU have to change the instructions!! They were to put Avastclear onto the desktop, close down windows, boot into safe mode, then only run Avastclear!! So explain how you do that and then let avastclear reboot in Safe Mode???

IMPORTANT FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT UPDATE AVAST.

If you get the error that says "File signature is not valid. Installation will end" As much as giving the button update 3 or 4 times usually catch a server that works.

I am like I am updating the avast when it does not update, at worst it says 2 or 3 times that of the signature but to the 4º update.

The servers (only some) are bad and when they download a file called uat.vpx gives the error, but as I say ONLY IN SOME SERVERS, if they insist 2 or 3 or 4 times should update without problems.

They will tell me if it works (well to me if it works)

Greetings to all.

PS: and forgive the spelling because using google translator I do not know if this will be very well translated.

Sorry, i'm french and not speak english :(

J'ai le même problème sur plusieurs ordinateurs donc j’ai vite compris que le problème venait des serveurs Avast...
Après avoir insisté une bonne cinquantaine de fois sans succès j'ai cherché une mise à jour manuelle et ça marche parfaitement :)

Thank you  :D

But I bring a solution, that does not have sense to post it only in the French section...
