I enabled the process and initiated a restart. This tends to be normal when installing new software and especially something like virus scanning software. The installation software reported this success with a prompt that also informed me that a restart was required for the changes to take effect.Īdditionally, since new Mac OS system security measures were implemented with Mojave I had to enable one system process that Avast wanted. And then the installation was finished and appeared to be completed successfully. The installation software had 2-3 very fast flashes of “installation failed” which quickly went away as the installation continued after each such flash. It has had no issues and has been operating normally prior to installing the current Avast Free antivirus software directly from the website. It is updated to Mac OS X Mojave (one operating system back from the very latest that was just released a couple of months ago).

I have an Apple 2013+ Mac Pro workstation. I was told that they simply have few to no support tools to help anyone with their Mac software… which has worried me since all I want is to remove Avast from my system at this point and get it back to normal. I spoke to Avast’s first level phone tech support line earlier this evening about this issue but the agent was unable to offer any help to solve the issue and frankly I am not sure that she understood the circumstances of the issue as I described them. Normally problems like these are not difficult for me to figure out but in this case I need some help.
