Visual C# Express application crash when AVG is Enabled

AVG Protection

Fabio is right, after i added my project to the exceptions it worked perfectly but once i published my application it failed on the computer that it was installed on, that means that is not only affecting the Visual Studio Build but the Release Build too, i am reinstalling AVG right now with the newest installer.
I will post later with my results.

Thanks, adding the whole Visual Studio 2010 folder (C:\Users\User\Documents\Visual Studio 2010) to the exceptions and restarting did the trick.

I agree too with Craig, it is something has to be taken care of, i spent more than a day just trying to figure out what the problem was, code review, checking dependencies, references, checking for corrupt libraries, etc., and that was just for a local project, for multiple projects or distributed development it can turn into a complete headache.

Thanks for your suppoort.

Hi i recently found a problem with an application that i am currently developing in Visual Studio C# Express Edtion 2010, the project is a Windows Forms project that contains basic controls (buttons, textbox, combobox, etc.), one of the controls is a textbox with the multiline property set, and when it has focus as soon as i press a key like "a" for example the application crashes and i get an "AccessViolationException", after a little research i found out that the problem was being caused by AVG Antivirus, and disabling it fixed my problem, my questions are:

Is this a known AVG bug, and is it gonna get fixed?
If not why am i getting affected by AVG?
How can i fix this while having AVG Enabled?

That is not a valid solution when you are compiling multiple applications and they are all exhibiting the same exception! I have the same problem and I currently have AVG disabled and considering uninstalling it to find an alternative.

I have updated AVG to Version 2015.0.6140 and it has fixed my problem both on Visual Studio and my published applications

Dear Avg tech support, i am also having this problem since yesterday. All my customers with AVG are CALLING for issues, the WinForm application we develope ALL are crashing WHEN people enter ANY LETTER in A MULTILINE TEXTBOX!!!

Same problem issued up there! This is a BIG problem! Listen to me: this problem is VERYFING in EVERY vb.net WinForm application WHEN avg is running! It means hundred of customers for my company, it may mean MILLIONS of USERS in ALL THE WORLD. You have to Fix this ASAP!!!

Are you at least searching for the cause? Please tell me you're working on it!
Trust me is not an isolated problem! A LOT of people will come here, and the reason they are not come yet is because it is very hard to discover that avg is causing it. I've spent an entire day with my teammates to figure this out.

Please let me know ASAP, i am really worried about this
