Title: hardware virtualisation Avast Free
Post by: Duch on February 03, 2015, 09:15:01 PM
Hi all

I noticed checkbox (Avast free) in the Settings section / Troubleshooting [ ] Enable hardware virtualization. In Avast Help, i see "Enable hardware-assisted virtualization - This is a more secure way to launch virtualized processes. If this box is checked, potential threats opened in Sandbox can not modify your computer or files." If i uncheck the box Avast free will be behave differently since Sandbox it is only in the paid version? Does this have any effect on the function "run, the behavior of programs, where appropriate, Avast?

Thanks for the info
