Reply with quote

I have just bought the full version of AVG. However I seem to have a small problem, when I start my computer there is no AVG icon in the taskbar. The only way I can get an AVG icon in the taskbar is to click and start AVG manually.

Is there a way for the AVG shield/program to start on its own, or does it run in the background without showing the AVG icon????

Not sure what I should do.

Many thanks.

Right click on the AVG AS icon in the Systray and checkmark "Start with Windows". That should do it for you.

Hi,

do you mean you bought AVG 7.5 Professional?

In AVG Control Center go to > Information > click on activate AVG

Did that help?

IF not - you then could click on Information > Technical support by e-mail.

thanks for your help, I found that ad-aware se was stopping it from loading. Had to set to allow AVG to start.
