Uninstall current botched-out DST version, uninstall Avast, download a 30-days trial of Kaspersky or Bitdefender (among the best AVs, here's a supporting article from PCMag plus more security solutions) and finally reinstall DST. Have a clean start for both antivirus and game. Also, afterwards, do a general sweep of your computer with newly installed and updated AV, to be sure everything's in order. More-so, as a rule-of-thumb, no Steam-installed game has viruses. For spyware.. that's another fish dish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
