AVAST Gets Rekt with Smart Scan
« on: February 01, 2018, 01:06:13 PM »
Help, when I use avast on my PC it gets this error that says "Avast is Down" and that "Something has gone wrong." and that I should try restarting it. But when I restart, it kind of skips the scanning part about virus scan.

I have it on a unlisted Youtube video. Here; https://youtu.be/DT1lCaEDcV4
