Can’t log on to internet.

Need help!
After installing avg anti virus free, when I click the internet explorer icon, nothing happens. I am using Windows 10 on this pc.  The other devices in the home work just fine. Please help.

To check if your AVG Antivirus Free is causing this, please disable it temporarily and try accessing your Windows Explorer.

Hi Midhun,
I tried to temporarily disable avg anti virus free, by right clicking the avg icon on the task bar. I don't get the green slider. All I get is avg antivirus free and unpin from taskbar.

We're sorry to know that, Bob. 
Before proceeding to check, we'd like to clarify whether this happens with Internet explorer alone or irrespective of browsers.
