Christopher Rueby AVG Internet Security no longer auto updating
Since Sept. 25th, the automatic update no longer happens. It is still set for automatic updates on the virus definitions in the control panel. History shows no attempts to update or errors. If I run the update manually, that works, but then it does not update itself in the following days. I only noticed since it gave warnings that the definitions were out of date after a week or so. I have rebooted, no difference. Normally I just hibernate the system, and it would update on wakeup. Now it does not auto update at all, ever. Any suggestions on how to fix this? I am a paid user running AVG Internet Security on Windows 7 Ultimate.
Keep in mind that Definitions Update Schedule, available only in the paid version
New virus definition update is
Unfortunately, for AVG AntiVirus Free Edition

One additional point to my second post - after yet another reboot after the reinstall attempt, it does look like AVG is running again, is shows in the taskbar, and the UI shows all is protected. Guess I wont know till another day if the auto update is working now, I will let you know.
My AVG 2014 free version also stopped autoupdate virus definition file since Oct 5 and the new defnition file only updates in 1 to 3 days now, not 3 times a day. Because I am using the old computer with low Ram, so I need to stick with 2014 version. I will need to wait until November for the new computer arrive, I will install AVG 2016 free without Zen. I have the installation file which downloaded on May. But I don't know why some AVG technical person said it will only install 30 days trial version only, some said it will install AVG 2016 free without Zen, I don't know who is correct!
Please be informed that the AVG Free edition without the AVG Zen interface is no longer available for the download. We would request you to install the updated AVG Free program so that your PC will be more protected than before.
Thank you.
