Avast Premier
« on: February 11, 2019, 03:50:29 PM »
Avast Premier won't run.  Avast Driver Updater and Avast Cleanup still ok.
I double click on icon or single click from taskbar (PC Windows 10) but only a blank white rectangle appears.
It has been running well for over six months but now seems corrupted. 
How can I fix this?

Are you using a VPN ??? If you are, it's a known problem that should be fixed soon.
Right now the fix is to uninstall the firewall portion of the product.

This could be relevant/similar: https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=224848.msg1493168#msg1493168

There are similar reports of this 'white screen' since December with some users including myself.,
Apparently there is a "deadlock" ocurring in the GUI for unknown (at this point) reasons. Avast is and has been working on the issue.
