The default configuration (
i.e. how the application is set up right after installation
) of
AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition 2011
is set up by the software vendor so that all
components and functions are tuned up to achieve optimum performance.
Unless you have a real reason to do so, do not change the AVG configuration!
Changes to settings should only be performed by an experienced user.
Some minor editing of
AVG Free components
settings is accessible directly from the
specific component user interface. If you feel you need to change the
AVG Anti-Virus
Free Edition 2011
configuration to better suit your your needs, go to
AVG Advanced
Settings
: select the system menu item
Tools/Advanced settings
and edit the
AVG
Anti-Virus Free Edition 2011
configuration in the newly opened
AVG Advanced
Settings
dialog.
