AVG Free back to tray

Post by Plan B »

I've been running free AVG and now the trial period has expired.
No biggie, I assume, just means I have to update manually.

However, when I do that (double-click AVG icon in tray, update and close) it appears AVG is terminated (disappears from tray and task manager).
I don't see an option to minimize back to tray again.

Is this true? Is AVG really terminated this way?
Seems kind of lame that I would have to reboot or leave the AVG-window activated.

No, there isn't.

Someone wasn't smart enough to download the free version.

Uninstall what you have, and go do that.
