Hi mech2112, welcome to the forum :)

esp safe zone? ETA or a fix?

SafeZone won't be fixed.
It will be replaced by something new, with SafeZone integrated.
And will be available in Avast 2016, scheduled for this autumn.

Greetz, Red.

Hi
I only purchased premier in March - will we get this upgrade so we can use the Safezone. 
I only updated my computer to Windows 10 yesterday so am not impressed!

@mech2112, janiep13: What problems do you have with SafeZone on Win10? I tested it with the latest Avast R3 SP1 (2225 build) and it's working correctly. Do you use official Win10 build 10240, right? Thanks.

Like Petr says : SafeZone under Win 10 should work, and is safe to use.
But an app like calc in Win 10 is a Modern App ( Metro App ) and won't be fixed.

About the " New SafeZone " or better the " New Feature with SafeZone integrated " I am very excited about from what I heard so far :)

Greetz, Red.

It does not work at for me and yes I am using the current public release all updates, every thing. I have tried everything I am an advanced user and cannot find a way for it to work.

It didn't work for me either and rolled back windows 10 to windows 8.1 and now it works again.
