Fix 1 – Properly remove another antivirus if installed on your pc
If you can’t install an Avira antivirus on Windows 10, it’s because Windows 10 prohibits installing any additional security software.
You should delete the previous antivirus program before attempting to install the new one since two antivirus programs do not work well together. To remove the other antivirus, follow these instructions:
Dial Toll-Free Number for any query
08000903202
Turn off Real-time protection by selecting Virus & threat protection settings after clicking the Windows icon, entering the control panel into the search box, selecting Windows security, and then clicking Open Windows Defender Security Center.
After completing the procedures mentioned earlier, Windows Defender is disabled. See whether you can install an antivirus for Windows 10 by trying.
Fix 2: Verify that the Avira free antivirus software you wish to install is appropriate for Windows 10 before you proceed.
The newest operating system is Windows 10. Thus, many antivirus products are incompatible with it. Make sure your antivirus software is appropriate for Windows 10 before using it. See the compatible section on the official website of your antivirus program.
Fix 3 – Run SFC Command
System files that are missing or damaged are another factor that prevents Windows 10 users from installing antivirus software.
Execute the SFC command on your machine, and then try installing an Avira Free antivirus program to see if it resolves the problem. To initiate the scanning process, follow these steps:
The command prompt window will appear on your screen, type the following command and press Enter. Press the key Windows, type cmd, right-click on the command prompt, and tap on “Run as Administrator from the list.”
Type the following command into the command prompt window and press
Enter: SFC/scannow
You have to wait while the scanning is done because it will take some time. Restart Windows when the procedure is finished, then attempt to install antivirus software to see whether it succeeds.
