Best Answer chosen by Colin RobertsRakshith Rajkumar (AVG)Hi Colin,
We understand your concern.
The slowness with internet speed with VPN turned on is an expected behavior.
This is because VPN encrypts traffic and data before sending it to a server.
Depending on the distance and capacity of the server, this process may cause a slightly slower, but safer, internet connection.
You can change the location in AVG Secure VPN and check whether you could see a change in internet speed.
And to turn off the 'Auto Connection':
Open AVG Secure VPN and go to ☰ Menu ▸ Settings.
Select the Network Security tab in the left panel, then tick the box next to Automatically when connected to the Internet.

Nate Wu AVG UI Fails to load
AVG UI Fails to load after updating to Windows 10 April update. I have restarted my computer and followed the troubleshooting steps it still fails. I have even reinstalled AVG and problem still happens...
Best Answer chosen by Nate WuNate WuThanks for all the help, but the only solution to my problem was that I restarted my PC this morning and AVG SUDDENLY decided to work again... Thats weird, maybe a windows update fixed it?

Since you already have AVG Internet Security - Unlimited valid till 2019.9.2 so you can receive a refund for AVG Internet Security (which has been renewed on 2018.5.4). Let me know if you want me to merge AVG Internet Security and AVG Internet Security - Unlimited or want to receive a refund for AVG Internet Security.
Best regards,
Alok.

Frank Witcombe Cancellation of Virus Protection and renewal/billing
My 2 year subscription for virus protection expires in November (22nd) 2017. I no longer wish to renew this. I am unable to access this thru My Account in order to cancel, as it erroneously does not recognize my subscription and I am unable to create a new account using my current email address. Please CANCEL my subscription and automatic extension/renewal for which I do nor wish to be billed
Best Answer chosen by Frank WitcombeBalasubramanian S (AVG) Hello Frank,
I understand the inconvenience.
I have successfully cancelled the auto renewal progress for your AVG Internet Security (1 computer) license.
I see that the auto renewal progress is active for your AVG PC TuneUp (1 computer) license too.
Do you wish to cancel it?

John Steffens PC Restart needed
Why is it that EVERY TIME I go to AVG Internet Security I have this big RED message about "PC RESTART NEEDED"?
I go there about once a week and it seems as though this always always presented.
Today, the ONLY thing that was up dated was virus definitions.
This is really annoying that I always have to restart.
Best Answer chosen by John SteffensPriyanga Sekar (Sitel)John, reinstallation always resets your software configuration by fixing or replacing program files which may be out of date, corrupted, or missing. This is why we suggested to re-install the product.
1. Yes, the settings will not revert back if we reinstall the product.
2. Unfortunately, there isn't any option to recover the settings configured in AVG TuneUp program.
3 & 4. The revamped version of AVG TuneUp 19.1, you can follow the steps as my colleague (Dinesh) stated earlier to install the product.
You can find an option to edit your post nearby your reply.
Thank you. If we can be of more help, please never hesitate to let us know.
