Problem installing AVG free Zen

Hello Mandy,

Sorry for the inconvenience caused.
Do you have any other third party antivirus program installed on your PC?
Did you get as "Description: event exec finished" error along with this code 0xC0070643?

Hi,  I am trying to st up my father's new laptop and install the free AVG Zen program.  After a lengthy installation process including a restart after which it starts the while process again, I am left with a message to say that that has it failed and given an error code 0xc0070643.  I first tried by adding another machine from my own Zen, then after using the AVG remove tool tried again with a totally fresh install. How can I install AVG?

Thank you for providing the detailed information.
In this case, I request you to run the McAfee remover tool once.
To download McAfee remover tool please use this link: http://download.mcafee.com/products/licensed/cust_support_patches/MCPR.exe
Once it is done restart your computer once and start installing AVG free antivirus program using this link: http://www.avg.com/us-en/avg-antivirus-free .

Hi,  After the first failed attempt I looked for pre-installed antivirus software, even though there was none visibly showing, and found that the dreaded McAfee was present.  I removed this, and tried the AVG Zen install again but it still failed.  After reading other forum comments on here, I then used the AVG remover tool, and tried again, both with and without the Microsoft firewall.  I did not get the "Description: event exec finished" error message that you describe.
