Hi! I do not have any other antivirus and Windows defender was off and still the same error.
Hi! I have upgrade to windows 10. After that I could not open the AVG ( the AVG antivirus 2014 not the free one). It was not working at all. I have tried to find solutions on your site. I understood that my avg 2014 is not compatible with the windows 10 but i can upgrade it. I have tried to do that but it was not working. It keeps giving me this error :
Waiting for watchdog service start failed
Error code 0xC0070643
Error message General internal error
Additional message MSI Engine fail to instal the product
@AVGMSI_Error 27007
Waiting for watchdog start service failed (0xC0070426)
I have also have a look again on your site and I found that I had to uninstall the Avg with the AVG Remover Tool, after to delete this program manualy an after that to reinstall the Avg again. I have done all this things but in the end the same error.
I do nt know what to do anymore. I have the antivirus and it is valid but is not compatible with windows 10 , I can not upgrade because of the error. I also tried t install your free 2015 version of avg but still the same error. What can I do because I need protection. I have tried all day long to search for solutions and to fix the problem but the same error.
Hello Cristian, I apologize for the inconvenience. This watchdog error usually comes up if you've any other Antivirus program installed on your system mainly due to McAfee in most of the cases. Could you please check in your programs list in your Control panel to see if you've any other Antivirus program installed. If so, please remove it and then try to install AVG. It should install without any hitches. Please feel free to contact us incase you need further assistance. Thank you.

Cristian, Quote "Waiting for watchdog service start failed"… This indicates that you have another anti-virus installed on your system. With Win 10 do you have Windows Defender, which is an AV prog, active?.
