3.5 Reinstalling and uninstalling AntiVir
You can re-launch the installation script anytime. There are more situations
possible:
• Installing a new version (upgrade). The installation script checks the previous
version and installs the necessary new components. The configuration set-
tings already made are not overwritten, but inherited (see Configuration –
Page 18).
• Later installation of some components.
• Activating or deactivating the automatic start of Avira AntiVir WebGate or
Avira Updater.
