AVG not updating, .bin file missing?

Posted by Dyimz on August 17, 2008 · 5 Comments 

This morning, as I open my computer, I noticed that the AVG icon on the right lower part of the screen turned black, and has the red exclamation point at it. That means that there is something wrong with AVG. I immediately checked what’s wrong with my AVG and I saw that the update manager is having the ‘x’ mark.

    1 – Start up AVG,click Update Now.
    2 – The list of updates is shown in Popup, click on the more information link.A list of updates will be shown.
    3 – Click on and save all updates in a file except the last one – http://downloadfree.avg.com/update/u7iavi1616oo.bin – because this is causing the problem.
    4 – Cancel the update and instead click on Tools > Update from Directory and go to the file where you saved the updates.Install these and AVG should be working properly again.
