I did the usual uninstall via Windows, uninstall using the AVG uninstall tool, and reinstall paid version, but it continued to revert.

I, too, had the experience of my paid AVG reverting to the free version. I wasn't sure where to post this information but, even though this thread is old, perhaps someone will see it and be helped by it. I maintain a network of computers in several countriesВ for other people that have had long running subscriptions from AVG (whom I originally recommended to them), but have now persuaded them all to remove it and use alternative (and now far better) services. It's also VERY difficult to uninstall completely and cleanly, even using the separate removal tools that they provide.

The software is now far too bloated, installs too many side-applications and often forces unwanted updates. If it had just been this issue, I would have stuck it out, but AVG had been fast going downhill for a while. In the end, I decided to dump AVG altogether and move to another provider.I had been using AVG for years and had recommended it to a lot of my clients over the years. The reseller in turn contacted AVG, who told him that I should contact them. All I got wasВ 'contact the reseller', who was confirmed as a legitimate reseller by AVG. I never did get a resolution to my issue.

Why on earth would you force an update that renders existing licences invalid and why would a product downloaded and activated with a valid licence, revert back to a free version following an update.

I've always recommended AVG, but having now spent many hours trying to sort this out, this situation is absurd.

However, folloing every update, it always goes through the following :ДЄ pop up with 'AVG AntiVirus Free - Congratulations, Your licence is now activated, and your new AVG Internet Security can now be installed'ДЄnd another with 'AVG AntiVirus Free - Application restart is required for licence change to take effect.'ДЄctioning the first pop up always causes the install to fail with error code 'Error code: 0ењЋ001F90F Description: Set mode (2)'Д«oth options always revert the product to AVG Antivirs Free. The application restarted and then showed as AVG Internet Security with two years remaining as it should.

However, despite using the proper AVG Internet Security files from the AVG site, it installed as the AVG Antvirus Free, so I went to the 'support' area in the product and placed my licence again. Upon installation, it asked for my product licence and installed successfully. This first occured after an automatic update installed ZEN, with the original licence 'disappearing' and the product stating that it was going to expire in 29 days.ДЄt that point, I decided to completely unistall (using the AVG Removal tool) and redownloaded the Paid version of AVG Internet Security and reinstall. However, recently, following an update, my AVG Intenet Security product keeps getting replaced with Antivirus Free Version.
