Thanks! As of today I'm experiencing the exact same thing. Avira updated itself to the newest .22 product version and after that the icon...
Anon, Do you also have the "All Files" option checked in the "Real-Time Protection" section? (see attached img) And may I kindly ask why it's...
Thanks! By disabling that last remaining service, Avira has returned to it's original form without any hidden bloat enabled in the background...
GeekUninstaller is a third-party uninstaller. ;-) But yeah, I did meant by doing a 'force uninstall' of the launcher, not the ordinary way via...
@anon Did you already tried to uninstall it with GeekUninstaller?
That's so awesome to hear, mate! When the time comes, I will definitely give that method a shot as well! And thank you for letting us know! It...
So this gives me a perfect opportunity to quote anon again:
[ATTACH] (Picture is taken from google) It's just because of the way that they now 'force' you to use this Launcher. They never did this before...
Thank you anon, you couldn't have said it any better!
Alright, I'll look into it when the moment is there. I still have version 15.0.16.282. I'll also definitely going to try out the method of...
Is there a clean/safe way to remove the Launcher for the Free version? Since the program itself says its required by Avira Free. But we all know...
Is it true that only in Avira Pro the Launcher is still removable and always will be? Or will Avira eventually push/force the Launcher also for...
I just tried out the new 15.0.17.273 version of Avira Free (213 mb) on a test pc to see if the rumors were correct that the Avira Launcher now is...
Thanks for the replies guys. I'll keep v2 hidden for now since Dragon1952 is hinting that a v3 maybe soon will follow. We'll see. And if v3 will...
Is it safe to install v2 of KB3097877 ? I never installed v1 of this update, but since this update is a critical patch to fix vulnerabilities in...
[IMG] This is what I meant. With the new Avira Free version 15.0.9.502, Avira isn't on the Application -> Utilities list anymore, because of the...
Impossible. What version are you using right now? Probably 15.0.8.656 instead of the new 15.0.9.502 version, which contains the new folder changes.
Because of the folder changes, Avira doesn't show up anymore on the application list in CCleaner. :thumbd:
I tried it just for the sake of it, but then the registry cleaner doesn't find any keys to be removed (every key was not found/deleted) after...
But those manual instructions only count for if the uninstallation failed via Programs and Features. But my main question is, if the...
I think I'll go with Cmhelper's advice. @anon I've downloaded the Registry Cleaner and opened it just to see what and how it looks like, but from...
Do you really need to use the Avira Registry Cleaner after I uninstalled Avira successfully via Programs and Features? I want to reinstall Avira,...
My English version of Avira Free is still on version 14.0.7.468 :confused:
My (English) version is still on 468. Is Avira still rolling out the new version in a step by step rollout? Like they always do IIRC.
Which hosts file do you guys recommend more, MVPS or Dan Pollock's from someonewhocares.org ?
