Avast Icons.

[Ted.]

For some reason Avast has taken over my Volume Control icon and I now have two Avast icons in my Task Bar. Rebooting corrects this for a while. How do I correct this?

Hello Ted and welcome to the forum.

Please try an Avast Repair:
- Go to Control Panel > Add/Remove programs > Avast Antivirus.
- Scroll down and choose Repair function in the pop-up window.
- Reboot.

Let us know if this fixes your problem.  Thank you.

Hi there, SafeSurf,

Thank you for your suggestion which I will try. However, as it's intermittent, it may be a while before I know if it's cured or not.

Hi, YoKenny,

Thank you for that, it's worth a try, although all okay at the moment.
