How to tell Windows I'm using AVG?
When I start Windows, I get a popup box
Windows Defender (i) This program is turned off If you are using another program that checks for harmful or unwanted software, use the Action Center to check that program's status. If I open the Action Center, I just see two (orange) sections: one telling me "Windows Update is set to check with you before downloading and installing updates.", which I have no intention of changing!, and one telling me "Your files are not being backed up.", which just means I don't have an _automatic_ backup in place. There is no mention of AVG at all. I'm sure I've seen Action Center acknowledge, and reflect the settings of, AVG before now. (AVG's icon is in the tray, _without_ a yellow triangle on it; if I click on it, it comes up and tells me "You have basic protection", and "Virus definition: 3 hours ago". So how do I remind Action Center that I have a working and up-to-date copy of AVG? (Do I have to do something from within AVG?) -- J. P. Gilliver.

The only muscle I've ever enjoyed exercising is the one between my ears. - Beryl Hales, Radio Times 24-30 March 2012 |
