Then... read again what was posted in this thread.
I
have read what was posted here earlier.
Program Settings, Troubleshooting- disable Avast self defence module.
This doesn't seem to work for me - I still get the "Unable to terminate process. Access denied" message when I try to end (avast) processes.
Is there
any way to disable AVAST! from starting at start-up?
I cannot disable it through MSConfig, nor through third-party start-up manager software (TuneUp).
I understand the need for the super-high level of protection/security of Avast processes and under normal circumstances it is a commendable feature. However I use a low-end lap-top and sometimes even the 5,964K AshDisp.exe can be a drain on resources.
So, once again - what, if anything, can I do to disable Avast running at start-up?
Thank you for your help.
