    What exactly is happening when you try to install?


    Have you ever installed it before on any other builds? Do you already have another AV program installed and running? Did you try right clicking on the setup and going to properties- Unblock- and Compatibility- Run as an admin?

    What error do you get when you try to install Avast?

    get rid of your previous download, restart your computer, download it again from Avast, unblock it and run it as admin when you go to install it. See if it works.
