Hi,
We apologize for the inconvenience caused due the trial version of AVG Internet Security. Download and run AVG Clear tool: https://share.avg.com/steam/PSP/AVG2017/AVG_Clear.exe . This tool will help with removing antivirus component of AVG 2017 and its traces.
Open tool
User Account control - click "Yes"
Windows safe mode - click "No"
Choose installed version (AVG Free, AVG Internet Security)
Click "Uninstall"
Click "Restart computer"
After restarting, please download the AVG Anti Virus FREE from : http://avgclick.me/InstallFree
Thank you!
Don't trust indian programmers from AVG , Microsoft, Google. They are very stupid and they work for a couple of cents per hour. They are very cheap employees, perfect working slaves, that is why IT companies appeal to them. They don't know to code a software, they usually get breaking or hacking their own product. Uninstall AVG and choose other antivirus software. And they have a shitty based customer phone support, which is also located in India.
So it's now September 2018 and the issue mentioned above is STILL happening. I am not able to access my AVG and I am getting that Internet security is expired message too. Plus my computer slowed down to a snails crawl as soon as this internet security thing expired - even though I have purchased AVG PC TuneUp.
I am seriously annoyed.

Also had this issue, which is funny considering I don't remember giving it permission to install internet security in the first place (only one to use my computer is me), so with that you have lost a costumer - You have installed something on my computer and is now blocking my antivirus, Hmmm shady practice there. I dont feel like jumping through hoops to keep using a program thats going to continue to make me jump through hoops. peace out.
Weirdly enough AVG installed Internet Security's trial version without my prompt. But I diden't think much of it.
Anyway I allowed AVG Internet Security to stay its 30 day trial, however when it expired it gave its:
"Your Internet Security trial has expired." But I just wanted to continue to use AVG Free, so theres no way to close the message down.
Even though it expired, two weeks have passed and the message still is showing. I noticed I can't run scans nor get into AVG free at all.
Whenever I go into the main AVG interface, and click "Anti-virus Free"

Internet Security for the past two weeks won't let me into AVG Free at all.
I uninstalled it four times, and even used the AVG Remover. Nothing helps.

Hi,
We're really sorry to hear that. Please be informed that a Window will appear asking you to click on Activate to activate the Trial Period. If you wish to avoid the Trial Period, you can just ignore the Activate Window and the AVG Internet Security Trial won't be activated.
Thank you!

It appears to be fixed. But remember when I said that I uninstalled and then reinstalled it four times?
The thing is, during the fourth time that I reinstalled it, it also seemed to be fixed, and within a day later the Internet Security message was back. I will wait a day or two and see if its permanently fixed. I'm hoping so.
Hello No,
Recently, we are getting the issues related to AVG Antivirus free saying as "Internet Security is expired".
We are analyzing the reason for this message appearing on AVG interface.
We will soon come up with a solution and make sure that this doesn't happen in mere future.
As of now, the resolution is to reinstall the program using our removal tools.
If you would like to reinstall, run AVG removal tool followed by Clear tool as mentioned (here).
Install AVG Antivirus free as mentioned (here).
Thank you.
