So I turned on my pc today and was greeted with the following delightful message:
One of the files containing the system's Registry data had to be recovered by use of a log or alternate copy. The recovery was successful.
Once fully cranked into gear I found that several of my programs had to be re-installed [YAY!] and
avast 4.8 Home had not entered its License key, nor loaded its skins. Fortunately I was able to resolve all of these issues myself but am now completely stumped with the issue of avast! refusing to update itself!
Going into the avast
Log Viewer ->
Warning I have multiple entries where I have tried to update and it has failed. I have updates set to
Automatic,
Normal Running Mode,
Show update progress and
Show sliding box after automatic update. However it's not letting me manually update, nor is it performing an automatic update.
This is the Log Viewer text that I get when the update fails:
Function setifaceUpdatePackages() has failed. Return code is 0x0000410, dwRes is 00000000
Help please oh avast! ninjas, you're my only hope! :'(
