Work Around..

I have the same problem, have been on the phone twice with tech support. The work around I got until they come up with a fix was

1. Delete the temp files from within AVG under Advance settings - Update - Manage - "Delete Temporary update files".
2. Then do an update Now
3. Reboot the PC

So I automated everything to the task scheduler within avg and windows. I set AVG to do an update every 2 hours and set the PC to reboot at 3:00 AM in the morning. I have found this to work for me. As far as the temp files i just have to remember to manually to flush them every day.

Is this gonna be fixed anytime soon? I mean, how difficult can this be?

From my last post I have found out that I do not have to delete the temp files. All that is required is an update and a reboot, and as previously stated a scheduled reboot by the windows task manager at 3:00 AM works for me.

Hello all,

This issue should we fixed in latest beta build, Please join our beta program and confirm that issue no longer occur.

Exasperated!..

I've just spent the best part of an hour in online chat with AVG Support trying to fix this problem. Firstly, they couldn't understand what the problem was. Then they just suggested removing AVG 2013 completely and re-installing. While doing all this, I Google searched the problem and came across this thread on AVG's own forum!! Do their technical guys not communicate known issues with each other. This is worrying.

This problem really needs to be fixed quickly. It is completely unprofessional for me to send out emails which suggest that I'm using out-of-date antivirus definitions.
