Overview

When iolo AntiVirus is shut down, the program is disabled and its icon is removed from the system tray. Since the icon is removed, you can not use it to enable or start the program.

Step-by-step Instructions

To restart iolo AntiVirus and enable its protection, open the program from the Windows Start menu.

  • If you installed iolo AntiVirus as part of the System Mechanic Professional suite, iolo AntiVirus can be opened from the "System Mechanic Professional" program group. (The default installation location is Programs > System Mechanic Professional > iolo AntiVirus > iolo AntiVirus.)

  • If you installed iolo AntiVirus separately, the program can be opened from the "iolo AntiVirus" program group. (The default installation location is Programs > iolo AntiVirus > iolo AntiVirus.)


Note: If you selected the Start iolo AntiVirus when my computer starts check box when you shut the program down, iolo AntiVirus will restart the next time you start or restart your computer.
