Unable to launch Avast!
« on: November 28, 2007, 02:21:08 PM »
Hello,

After having uninstalled NORTON, I have just installed AVAST HOME 4. I still cannot properly launch it. I have on the right bottom of the screen the small AVAST icon with a red zero. I did load the licence key, but it still does not want to launch the antivirus test. When I do it, I get a message saying "Splash Avast screen was unable to load the configuration"

I do not understand what is wrong. Could you help me please?

Norton can be a real pig to remove all the debris.

A link worth looking at, which is a program removal tool that can remove the remnants of a number of different Norton Programs:
Removing your Norton program using SymNRT
You can also download SymNRT, a Norton uninstall tool that uninstalls all Norton 2004/2005/2006 products.
Windows 10 Home 64bit/ Acer Aspire F15/ Intel Core i5 7200U 2.5GHz, 8GB DDR4 memory, 256GB SSD, 1TB HDD/ avast! free 24.3.6108 (build 24.3.8975.762) UI 1.0.801/ Firefox, uBlock Origin, uMatrix/ MailWasher Pro/ Avast! Mobile Security

Any other antivirus besides Norton?
Which other Symantec products did you install?
Are you at an admin account?
