    How do I turn it off :confused:

    I'm trying to run some software that requires anti virus software to be disabled when installing.

    Thanks

    Are you sure you tried enough? I don't think it's that tricky. If I'm right you will find a small icon of Avast at the bottom alongside the time. In case you don't notice any, just click the up-arrow over there and you will get for sure. Right click that icon and you will find an option to disable it. However, I must say I'm not definitely sure as I don't have it installed here and I am finding it hard to memorize where it actually. However, I have it on my PC but more than unwilling to wake up from bed and turn it on again, you know :). But this must help. Otherwise, launch your avast and check the available options. There need to be a disable option at any cost. But hopefully, what I said previously will help you get rid of your issue.

    There is a "Stop" button under each of the "real time shields" functions...

    If all else fails you can always go to your control panel and click on *uninstall a program*, and reinstall it after you are done.
