    For non-paying subscribers...

    Two other options...

    Option 1:
    In the Cortana search, type in: Services
    Double click Services in the search results
    In Services window, look for: Avira.ServiceHost
    If the status is blank, or it does not say Running, double click the service to open it, and click: Start
    Restart the computer.

    Look to see if the tray icon works.

    Option 2:
    Right click the tray, select: Task Manager
    In Task Manager window, select the tab: StartUp
    Does Avira have two items:
    Avira system tray application
    Avira.SystrayStartTrigger     <<<Disable this one!
    Restart the computer.

    Does the tray icon work?

    first thx so much indeed again!

    option 1: the service is stopped, i start it but even in a second is stopped again and again..no way also from command line net start and name service..i got error..
    so the issue is there..

    option 2 as said do really not work at all at least in my case...

    so the icon is still MISSING in systray...

    It does not work, but thanks for your help!



    I would probably change antivirus, but I really like avira.


    360 Total Security is a good choice?

    The help available for Avira Free is limited to a Peer forum ( other users only) if you need technical help from Avira they expect you to purchase a licence - which is their decision and is similar to a number of other software providers who offer a fully working free version and Paid for help

    Avira icon on system tray not showing

    My Avira has been off for the past three days (closed umbrella), after an update broke it. Right clicking -> enable realtime protection did nothing, and more updates did nothing. I fixed it by going to the control panel -> programs and features -> Avira Antivir -> right click -> Change and unchecking Mail Protection in the installer. Turns out this has been happening to a lot of people over the past week, but after doing that the umbrella finally opened.
