Twonky stopped working

Post by Brian F » Tue May 10, 2011 11:59 am

I performed a system scan using Avira AntiVir Premium and allowed the software to make changes to my system. Since this time Twonky, and for that matter the Windows 7 server, do not appear on devices. Not being overly technical, can I totally remove the Twonky software, download it again and use the original key to reinstall it? I'm loath to do anything for fear of causing more problems. Any help would be appreciated.

I suspect your Anti-virus is blocking access to ports that we need. To resolve this, make sure to add Twonky to your software exceptions list.
