For some reason on booting my various computers with Windows 7, the AVG Internet Security icon is no longer in the task bar (bottom right of desktop). It worked fine until a few days ago. The AVG tuneup icon is still there. So I checked the task manager "services" tab and see this:
AvgAMPS - Stopped
avgfws - running
AVGIDSAgent - running
avgsvc - running
avgwd - running
Is AVGAMPS the problem?
If I start the AVG Internet Security from the 'Windows Start" button then the icon appears.
Any ideas what the problem is?
Thanks!
Hello Glenn,
We regret for the inconvenience caused. We suggest you to go to 'run' command (Windows+R), choose 'startup' menu and then check for AVG Internet Security in the list and let us know if it is checked or unchecked. Thank you.
Thank you for providing the version information, Yes it is the current version.
Actually AVG internet security process should always be running when the windows startup.
In your case some files of it would have got corrupted that is the reason it is not listed in the process.
We request you to try repair installation of AVG program once by following the instructions mentioned in this link: http://avgread.me/1BVxDSY and check whether is running in the processes tab of task manager.
No. It seems OK. Now I need to reinstall on all the other machines I guess.
Thank you for providing the screenshot.
We can understand that you are looking the startup programs on your AVG PC tuneup program.
The AVG UI shown on the list is the AVG internet security program and on PC tuneup startup program list it will be shown only as AVG UI and not separately as AVG Internet security.
To know about "NONE" program please right click on it and select "Properties" and on the Target please find the path where it is installed.
It will have the program name so by seeing it we can confirm which program it is.
I am not sure what you are asking. AVG Startup Manager? The only AVG in that list is AVG Ui(Re)Starter and it is startup enabled.
