Temporarily disabling AVG

Hello Andrew. Yes, you're right. Please uninstall and reinstall the program. It would definitely work. Please use the removal tool to remove the program that would be much more effective.  Please use the remover tool accordingly.

While troubleshooting a failed update in MS Windows, the Microsoft tech told me to temporarily disable AVG. I did this by right-clicking on the AVG icon in the system tray and then selecting "temporarily disable" | "until restart"; however, AVG won't run now. I have restarted a couple of times, and have also opened AVG and tried to run a scan, but it won't run. Do I need to uninstall and reinstall AVG?
