Auto update fail

thanks for prompt replies.
I  have been investigating uninstall/reinstall  AVG which I have seen mentioned in other responses provided by the AVG team.
I will continue manual updates for now and await your solution.
I hope AVG will inform me when it is thought that auto update should work.

Thank you for your understanding, Edward.

Edward, There are presently issues with auto-updating which AVG are investigating. For the time being please carry on manually updating.
