Nordvpn and AVG just wont work

I used NordVPN with AVG internet security about 25 days and everything worked well.
Now i paid for AVG Internet Security Unlimited and AVG PC Tuneup.
Internet Security and NordVPN worked well until I used the AVG PC Tuneup. This Tuneup messed mc PC and I begin to get BLUESCREEN when I try to use NordVPN.
I uninstall AVG PC Tuneup from my PC.
So I clean install Windows 7 and I just cant seem to get my AVG to work with my NordVPN.
I did disable AVG Internet Security program temporarily to check about Nord VPN is working. The answer is NO. I got Bluescreen again.
Than I uninstall AVG Internet Security and NordVPN works perfectly.
Now I have many times clean install windows 7 and every time I try to use AVG and NordVPN still getting BLUESCREEN.
Both work  seems perfect individually.
HOW CAN I GET AVG and NORDVPN WORK TOGETHER.
Any help or direction to look will be great thanks
Regards A.G.

This problem occurs after I have used PC tuneup.
I think pc tuneup has made some things that i can't get rid of.
Although I install clean windows but the problem follows.

When I uninstall AVG Internet Security Nordvpn runs smoothly.
As I said before AVG and Nordvpn ran fine together until I bought and used AVG Pc Tuneup.
Although many times I installed clean windows and download new AVG file from home page problems follow.
Just to try I have uninstalled AVG and download another antivirus from the web and both programs (Nordvpn and new antivirus) run smoothly.

I think Pc Tuneup has made some changes to my AVG Internet Security subscribe file.

Is there any way you can reset the current AVG settings and go back to the first AVG that I have subscribed to before PC Tuneup?

Aytekin, 

You can try our AVG Clear and Remover tool to remove the traces of old AVG completely and check if re-installation helps. 

Download AVG Clear (first) and Remover tool:

Reinstall AVG Internet Security from our official site: https://www.avg.com/en-us/installation-files

I've done that. I have used AVG Clear and AVG Remover.
Later I have reinstalled AVG Internet Security from the official site but all that didn't help.
I still get blue screen every time when I activate both.
It's annoying that I bought some that didn't work
I feel like I am naked without virus protection when I surf

I have the same problem. What do I need to do to resolve this

Hello Lauremce,

We will work together to sort this issue.

The VPN conflicting with AVG Internet Security is fixed in the latest version of AVG program.

Please update your AVG program and check if that fix the issue. If the issue persists, please let me know the version of AVG installed on your computer.

To check the version, open AVG Internet Security, click on "Menu->About".

I just downloaded NordVPN and every time I try to use it, AVG won't let me. I can't see the Menu button to see which version I'm using.

Hello Salsabeel,

Are you using the free or paid version of AVG?
Could you open the AVG Antivirus/AVG Internet Security program interface and share its screenshot here?
You can post the screenshot here in your topic. Click on 'Answer' & then click on the 'Image' [mountain symbol] & follow the instructions.
