    Please excuse the (possibly) stupid question, but having a glance through the DDS log, it looks like there's bits of AVG left over from the uninstall (I'm looking at this bit
    AV: AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition 2013 *Enabled/Updated* {0E9420C4-06B3-7FA0-3AB1-6E49CB52ECD9}
    SP: Windows Defender *Disabled/Updated* {D68DDC3A-831F-4fae-9E44-DA132C1ACF46}
    SP: AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition 2013 *Enabled/Updated* {B5F5C120-2089-702E-0001-553BB0D5A664}
    )
    Am I reading that right?

    I know running two AVs is a no-no so just thought I'd mention it.

    Rebuilding the WMI Repository would correct that.
    It is uninstalled as there's no AVG processes/service/drivers running.

    It doesn't really matter as the OP is reinstall Windows.
