I can't open Microsoft Office documents after update
« on: May 27, 2020, 06:55:06 PM »
There was an update today for the cleanup premium. After this, I can't open my office files such as word, excel etc..

Whenever I try to open a file, I get the error Windows cannot find 'C:\Users\username\Desktop\filename' make sure the name is typed correctly and try again.

I know it's associated with Avast because I had this issue already when I deleted the program from my computer. I had to redownload it and then if I can remember correctly, fiddle around with environment variables... but I can't remember how I fixed it back then..

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Cheers in advance!
