    Avira Antivirus not opening


    I have a win10 laptop, and Avira will not open. I've tried everything I could, but some methods are restricted. I don't have Avira.ServiceHost.exe, and they say that might be the problem, but I don't have the permission to uninstall the app. I got Avira free version because I got a Russian Hacker bot a few days ago, and my laptop is still acting weird, like opening and closing apps randomly weird. Avira says there is "5 issues to fix", but when I can get the app to open, there aren't any issues to fix. What is up with that?

    :)

    Windows cannot send updates due to Avira Antivirus (not Aviva) - they suggest uninstalling Avira but it is not listed and I am not aware that I ever downloaded it. Presume its some sort of malware - any suggestions please if anyone has had the same problem
    - thank you

    Avira Antivirus

    Check the old Control Panel to see if it is listed there and can be uninstalled. Do you see an icon for it in the system tray. (next to the date and time, perhaps in the hidden list)

    If you cannot use the windows uninstall method and the Avira method (original link) doesn't work then try Revo uninstaller.
