    I am not tech. person who has vast knowledge regarding operating system and viruses. I am small shopkeeper. I use desktop PC for maintaining daily updates of my business. Many time I faced problem like this. Every time I use simple solution that staring your machine in safe mode. My most of problem are solved effectively by using this method. I also suggest you to go with same one. Simply re-start your machine in safe mode. And check now you are able to access your desktop or not. If you are unable to get access to your desktop simply go to program files inside c drive there you will find folder called AV8. Remove that one completely. This will definitely help you to resolve your problem.

    Before trying complicated solutions I will suggest you to try to resolve this problem by starting your system in safe mode. If still you are facing same problem, simply switch to AV8’s main screen and select settings option under overview tab and unmark all the checkboxes present. After that go to start option and choose uninstall av8. This will remove av8 completely from your machine. If come across the same issue I will suggest you to go with last option that is repair your operating system. And use system restores option from last historical point. This is an effective and simple solution to solve all major problems related to your operating system.
