Per AVG instructions on creating a bootable USB device:
Using the RAR/ZIP archive to create a USB bootable device
To create a USB flash drive variant of AVG Rescue CD, you will need to do the following:
Extract the archive downloaded from AVG web to your preferred location.
Double-click the extracted setup.exe file.
Without resorting to WINE, the USB bootable device can only be created from a Windows computer?

Usually you just have to copy the bootable image onto the USB stick, on Linux e.g. with
dd. If the RAR/ZIP archive contains the bootable image itself, and ifsetup.exeis not needed to make changes to the image (or whatever), you should be able to do it from Linux. – dirkt – 2016-12-09T08:47:25.893
