I recently installed the free version of Avira.

I don't see the logo in the task bar indicating any issues I need to check.

I have to open Avira and see if there are any issues.

How do I get the logo in the task bar?

  Hello Tom,

  Unfortunately, you have not specified the installed OS. If the installation was correct, the Avira icon should be displayed in the taskbar.

  Please do a repair installation:
  Repair your Avira Security for Windows – Official Avira Support | Knowledgebase & Customer Support | Avira

  Or an uninstallation:
  Uninstallation of Avira for Windows – Official Avira Support | Knowledgebase & Customer Support | Avira

  Then do a new installation:

  How do I install a product via My Avira Account? – Official Avira Support | Knowledgebase & Customer Support | Avira

  After that, everything should be displayed correctly.

  If anything is still unclear, please let us know, we are happy to help.

  Many greetings

  I did the repair but still don't see Avira in Task Bar.
  
  Should I do a complete uninstall and re-install?

  I uninstalled and re-installed Avira.
  
  It does show up in the task bar but to the left of the task bar.
  
  When I had originally installed Avira there was a logo on the far right of the task bar.
  
  I went to customize it but there was not Avira on the list.
  
  Originally if there were any issues Avira discovered there would be a "dot" in the logo but that logo has disappeared. It's only on the far left.
  
  Now I have to open Avira to see if there are any issues.
  
  Am I doing something wrong or is it Avira?

  Hello Tom,

  Your strange settings are not due to Avira.

  You have not yet told us which OS is installed on your computer.

  Here you can find instructions for installing Avira Security Free:
  Issues with the Avira Security installation – Official Avira Support | Knowledgebase & Customer Support | Avira

  How do I perform a manual reinstallation of my Avira product? – Official Avira Support | Knowledgebase & Customer Support | Avira

  How do I install Avira Free Security? – Official Avira Support | Knowledgebase & Customer Support | Avira

  If you have read all these instructions and applied them unsuccessfully, it would make sense to check your operating system and your settings.

  We are sorry, but we do not have access or insight into your installation.

  Kind regards
