Title: Hardened mode/PUP's
Post by: Charyb-0 on October 20, 2014, 10:29:20 PM

When I enable hardened mode, pups is also enabled without me doing so.

I have Hardened Mode (Aggressive) and my PUPs settings have remained as before - AvastUI > Settings > Active Protection > File System Shield > Actions > PUP (1. Ask; 2 No Action).

I'm assuming the above area is where you have seen this changed ?

I should have been clearer. It's where you enable global pups under general settings. I attached an image.
