Error code: 0xE001C00D

I recently upgraded to Windows 10. All of my files were fine and everything else works. But ever since I've upgraded to Windows 10 AVG Free keeps telling me there is an update. Every time I try to install it the installation will be interrupted by a message code reading:

Data write error.

Serverity: Error
Error code: 0xE001C00D
Error Message: Data write error.
Additional message: Failed to download files.
Context: Initialization of the AVG Online Installer

This is the only time I've ever had a problem installing/using a product from AVG. Could somebody please explain how to fix this? Sorry if this is an obvious error that should be easy to fix.

Anthony, Try removing AVG by downloading & using the 32 or 64bit 2015 Remover (http://www.avg.com/ww-en/utilities) [Scroll Down], whichever suits your system. If you're not sure about 32 or 64 bit on your system have a look @ this link (http://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/827218). Then re-install AVG Free by downloading & using either the 32 or 64bit install file which suits your system from this webpage (http://free.avg.com/ww-en/download-free-all-product).
