Hello Marco,

I can understand your concern. Please follow the below steps to disable the automatic update from AVG and run manual update.

* Please open AVG Internet Security\AVG AntiVirus free
* Click on Menu->Settings->Update->Settings
* Select the option "Manual update" and that should disable the automatic update from AVG

If you face any difficulties, feel free to contact us

You're welcome Marco and thank you for the screenshot, I see that you're using AVG Free Antivirus 2016 version. I would recommend you to reinstall your AVG Free Antivirus 2017 version (it is more effective the 2016 version and it has updated virus definition). Please download AVG Remover tool (http://download.avg.com/filedir/util/AVG_Remover.exe), run the downloaded file, select all AVG programs and click remove, if AVG remove tool ask for reboot, please reboot your computer once. After reboot, please follow the instruction (http://support.avg.com/SupportArticleView?urlname=Download-and-install-AVG-AntiVirus-Free) to install  AVG Free Antivirus 2017 version. Once your AVG Free antivirus 2017 version gets installed, then please follow the previous post instruction to setup AVG manual updates.
Best regards,
Alok.
