I just downloaded AVG version 17.0 yesterday and was delighted to see that it saw and captured 20 threats, but… it took, literally, all day!!
Why is it so slow? I had it run a scan this morning on a single folder (25 MBs) downloaded from my server and it was INTERMINABLE!! I couldn't see if it was doing anything, so checked Activity monitor and although it had 6 threads open, there was zero CPU performance. I finally had to cancel the scan.
What's up with this? I see others have a similar problem

Thank you for your respons, Joyson. I tried, as per instructions, deinstalling and reinstalling AVG, but then it wouldn't open at all! Not even after a restart and cleaning my system. I could find no solutions.
I found your program incredibly buggy, and looking at the reviews and queries online see that I am far from alone.
So I just deinstalled AVG and went and got a copy of Bit Defender.
