  1. Update requires deinstallion of Avira app that is not installed


    Windows 10 wants to install an update on my computer, but it tells me that I have to deinstall the Avira Antivir app, first. The trouble is, I deinstalled that app one year ago (which was quite a hazzle. I had to download an Avira deinstallation app first, and do some operations in safe mode).
    However, I do not see that app in my list, and I was sure up to now that the leech had gone, already.
    How can I either make windows notice that the app is gone, or weed out the remains of Avira?

    :)

    Windows 10 update problem

    My computer is trying to update to 1803, but it hangs up and tells me it can't uninstall an app call Avira AntiVir. I don't have such an app in my installed programs list. I've tried a registry search and can't find any such entries. I've tried an Avira
    Uninstall tool. Nothing can remove Avira AntiVir. Any suggestions?

  3. Apps not installing on Windows 10

    Hi Nicole,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community.

    I understand your concern. Let me help you to fix the issue.

    To assist you better, please provide us more information.


    • Which Windows 10 build is installed on your system?

    • Which app are you trying to install?

    • What is the complete error code do you received?
    • Is this issue specific to a app or all the apps?
    Let’s try simple steps troubleshooting steps and check if this helps in resolving the issue. Follow the below methods.

    Method 1.

    At first, I suggest you to check if any Windows update is pending. (If yes, install all the Windows update).


    • Type update on the Windows search bar and select Check for updates.
    • Now click on Check for updates button, it will automatically detect the Windows update if pending.
    Method 2.

    I suggest you to run Windows app troubleshooter, this tool can automatically identify and fix some problems with apps and the Store. Visit the below link to run app troubleshooter.

    Also, I suggest to update the Windows store manually.


    • Open Windows store, click on your account on top right corner.
    • Select Download & updates and click on Check for Updates.
    Hope this helps. Let us know the result.
