Dears,
Avast free antivirus on windows 7 x64, fresh install on a virtualbox VM. Installed last version, after a few days a red cross appears on the tray icon, and the UI says that I am unprotected ant the licence is not valid (see attachment #1). Click on "Activar" (activate), leads to choose between free and paid (attachment #2), selecting paid gets the screen offering trial version (attachment #3), but after dismissing this (either clicking No, thanks or closing the window) nothing happens, the red cross stays there, even after rebooting.
- Tried uninstalling with avast clear in safe mode and reinstalling: after a few days, red cross again.
- Tried repair via control panel: it offers me two buttons for avast: uninstall or change. Clicking any of them appears a window telling to renew license (attachment #4), but after click on "Volver a avast antivirus" (Back to avast antivirus) anothe window telling reneweval is done apperas, then everything is equal: red cross still there.
I did not find in the forum anything of help.
Please advise.
