Re: Avg says .bin missing when updating
Found this solution on the yahoo answers forum from member intc_escapee and it worked for me:
1) go to »www.grisoft.com/ww.download-update
2) make a directory on your desktop called AVG
3) download AVI: 270.6.4
4) download IAVI: / 1616
5) move the dowloaded files to the directory you made called AVG
6) launch AVG
7) select tools -> update from directory
8) select the directory called AVG where you put the downloads
That's it. Should be fixed. |

... or you can manually download file u7iavi161581.bin from server akamai.avg.com and run manual update from within AVG Anti-Virus FE under Tools, Update from directory, and then pointing to above .bin file that you just downloaded. Or you can download same via MajorGeeks.com
However, if you have automatic update running to guru.avg.com/softw/80free/update, then the .bin file missing error will reappear until AVG stores that update (.bin) file on the server.

| Seems the file »free.grisoft.com/softw/80free/up···16oo.bin is the missing file ... server does not seem to be "there" alot or at least the file can't be found during update.
Again, updating from directory rather than automatically seems to best choice at present.
