Rescue Disk Does not Load when Booted from
« on: September 24, 2017, 10:41:14 PM »
When I try and boot from a DVD Rescue Disk it gets to the point where it shows a command prompt showing various things succeeding and then after it closes the screen flickers and then the computer restarts. I have tried re-burning the ISO, downloading a fresh ISO and burning it, uninstalling Windows PE and reinstalling it, uninstalling and reinstalling Avast Rescue Disk and all of this still produces the same result. However a older Rescue Disk I made around August 28 with the same computer boots and works fine. The system in question is running Windows 8.1 64-bit and Avast's version is 17.6.2310

Is the system connected to the Internet?
Does a USB stick work if you use that as resque disk?

Yes the computer is connected to the internet, but I have recently moved so most of my computer stuff is in transit so I only really have a few DVD-Rs laying around.

There was a fix about week ago, some files were missing on rescue disc image. Please try it again in next release. Thank you.

I'm thankful that it has been sorted out, just wondering how I can get the update?

Same as you can get all vps/application updates.
