 :( ??? I installed Avast and it's browser about a week ago and have not been able to follow a link to it's source since then. This doesn't happen with my other devices, but there are occasions when I need to download files or change passwords that I need to do so from my laptop.

I apologize for not looking harder for answers before starting this topic and I have no idea as to which section this should have gone, but due to several strokes and other health conditions, some logic trains don't work all that well before leaving me totally confused.

I'm working on a Dell using Window 10. Please let me know what other information you need.

What kind of link? Email or Website?
An example may be of help.
Have you checked your setting under default Apps to make sure there is a default browser assigned?
