HTMLayout.dll cannot be loaded on Avast 2014 installation

Asked By william jones69 10 points N/A Posted on - 01/15/2014

Hello! I am currently residing in Russia and I want to ask a question regarding Avast 2014. I cannot install it on my computer. It has an error which I do not understand. I found some solutions advising me to run anti-malware and a cleaner and then use the Avastclear.exe to reinstall the software. But all just didn't work. There is no malware found. I am running Windows XP 64-bit. The error I am receiving is stating:

HTMLayout.dll cannot be loaded to properly start GUI. Therefore process cannot continue.

HTMLayout.dll cannot be loaded on Avast 2014 installation

To fix this, you need to download the latest update of Avast and then install it by doing the following steps:

1. Go to C:Program FilesAVAST SoftwareAvastSetup.

2. Copy the HTMLayout.dll and paste it to C:WindowsSystem32 and C:WindowsSysWOW64 if you are running 64-bit.

If this doesn't fix the issue, you can update Avast using the old version.
