How Do I Transfer My Avira to New Computer/Another Drive
To fully copy Avira antivirus from one computer to another, you can create a backup of the Avira installation folder on the first computer and then restore it on the second computer. This method avoids the need for reinstallation and may resolve the download pending error issue. To do this, go to the Avira installation folder on the first computer, right-click on the "Avira" folder, and select "Copy". Then, go to the second computer, navigate to the Avira installation folder, right-click, and select "Paste" to restore the copied folder. This should transfer all Avira settings and data, including the antivirus software itself, to the second computer.
To get Avira installed on your new PC or another drive, you'll need to use the installation program. A simple copy of the antivirus software may not work due to its complex nature that requires interaction with your registry. The "download pending" error on your new PC indicates that the installation process is stuck. You can try reinstalling Avira using the installation program, or you can also try installing it on another drive if possible. If you're still facing issues, you may want to consider contacting Avira's support team for further assistance.
