AI Thread Summary
To install AVG in English, first uninstall the current version, then change your browser's language settings to English before downloading AVG again. After installation, you can revert your browser language back to your preference. To select the display language in AVG, navigate to Options, then Help contents, and find the language settings to choose from the drop-down menu. If you need additional languages, run the AVG installer in Custom mode and add them in the Additional Languages section. The quarantine folder is referred to as the "virus vault," which can be accessed through the Options menu to view any suspicious files.

I have some troubles with AVG. When I download it, it is always installed in my native language, how can I install it in English? And I cannot find quarantine folder. Version is 17. I read a help file but it was different. Would you help me?

Thank you.

This may work. Delete AVG. Change native language in browser to English. Download AVG. Change native language back to what you want.
 
From AVG / Options / Help contents / Index / Find ' language '

Langauge selection :

To change the display language of AVG, choose from the drop-down menu and click OK. After restarting AVG, the whole application will be displayed in the selected language.

Usually the drop-down menu will only offer English, or English and one other language (the one you selected during installation). To add a new language to the list, you need to run the https://www.physicsforums.com/main_reinstallation_of_avg.htm of AVG in the Custom mode, and add the required languages in the Additional Languages section.

Not sure what you mean by quarantine folder . All suspicious material is sent to the virus vault which you can visit via the Options menu .
 
Thread 'Urgent: Physically repair - or bypass - power button on Asus laptop'
Asus Vivobook S14 flip. The power button is wrecked. Unable to turn it on AT ALL. We can get into how and why it got wrecked later, but suffice to say a kitchen knife was involved: These buttons do want to NOT come off, not like other lappies, where they can snap in and out. And they sure don't go back on. So, in the absence of a longer-term solution that might involve a replacement, is there any way I can activate the power button, like with a paperclip or wire or something? It looks...
In my discussions elsewhere, I've noticed a lot of disagreement regarding AI. A question that comes up is, "Is AI hype?" Unfortunately, when this question is asked, the one asking, as far as I can tell, may mean one of three things which can lead to lots of confusion. I'll list them out now for clarity. 1. Can AI do everything a human can do and how close are we to that? 2. Are corporations and governments using the promise of AI to gain more power for themselves? 3. Are AI and transhumans...
