Avast does NOT recognize password upon uninstall?
« on: January 01, 2023, 12:19:42 AM »
So, Avast PREMIUM Security app installed on my PC doesn't seem to recognize the password when I try to uninstall it... and it appears I have to install a whole other Avast app to uninstall... talk about pathetic. But then I got to read the funny story of a guy zapping himself with a tazer which was pretty funny and lightened up my mood... why on Avast forum though of all places??? anyway.. pathetic still. Never purchasing Avast ever again.
