Hi any help appreciated :
whilst installing, as an added device, on an old windows' XP home' machine I get the report AVG has encountered an unexpected error : code 0xc007001d.  Whilst this isn' the main computer in use on my home network it would be nice to replace the free AVG with the paid version I use on the other computer.
Thanks
Malc

Malc,
Please confirm whether you followed the steps in previous post to remove AVG traces completely. If not, please try to follow them and then reinstall AVG free Anti virus in your PC.
