Hi all,
I am happy to announce new version AVAST 2016 (build number 2016.11.2.2261).
This update brings originally premium feature - SafeZone browser also to all free users.
What's new:
+ SafeZone browser is now included also in free version
+ Avast program updates are now automatic and silent by default - can be changed via Settings->Update
+ Faster computer startup
+ Fixed issues with Firewall on Windows 7
+ Fixed postpone function on restart dialog
+ Fixed starting Pay mode in SafeZone browser
+ Better notification about email signatures
How to install:
1. Update from existing Avast version via Settings -> Update -> Update program
2. Or you can download and install from here:
http://files.avast.com/iavs9x/avast_free_antivirus_setup.exe
http://files.avast.com/iavs9x/avast_pro_antivirus_setup.exe
http://files.avast.com/iavs9x/avast_internet_security_setup.exe
http://files.avast.com/iavs9x/avast_premier_antivirus_setup.exe
We hope you enjoy the new version!

With this new silent program update, does Avast still show that Chrome installing window?
-
And the installer itself is 11.2.2279.0 for god known what reason... ???
for me all the driver files are 2279, also avastUI.exe is and avastSvc.exe is
I think the final version is then 2279 ?

Same thing is with AvastClear also.
What is with this weird version number ?

I hope Secure VM now works properly on Win10 64bit. Would be nice if there was an easy way within settings interface to perform a test instead of fiddling with commandline tools for it.

A UI Real Time Statistics problem from the beta build has been carried over to 11.2.2260.
On displaying the Statistics > Real Time Data - The stats count is present, but it is barely there long enough to do a screen capture before the count/s return to zero.

major bug still exists several stable/beta versions ;(

Why does Avast want me to turn on SecureLine ???
Why is it unsafe for me to decide not to choose Auto Update ???
I've opted to be notified.

I couldn't figure out why my system was slower than usual with this latest avast! version despite using Samsung 850 Pro for my PC drive. This version doesn't turn off Windows Defender. They are BOTH running together. C'mon!? How did you f**k this up!?

If you are on the beta stream, Avast always shows "Beta" on its UI.
Of course it'll access to beta server, to receive new beta when released.

Installed and protecting! 8)

Yes David, this is internal change which has no impact for users, just for our infrastructure.
On a forum and web post we will continue in using version number, which is displayed inside Avast. Both numbers will be unified in next releases.

If you mean the offer right after the update, yes.

Hello!!

Avast, please separate the update selections between program update and VPS update.

I opted to be notified when there is a PROGRAM UPDATE available.
Apparently my decision applies to ALL UPDATES.

Update options (settings) are there for both VPS and Program on my XP system.
My VPS updates remained on Auto and the Program update was changed to 'Ask when update is downloaded.' Previously I had it set to 'Ask when an update is downloaded, I soon set it back. This change happened after a custom install of 11.2.2260 over 11.1.2253.
I did a manual update from the UI on my win7 system and the settings remained as they were pre-update.

On a more important note I got yet again the Safe Zone Browser installed without questions despite explicitly uninstalling it before!!! Will start a separate thread about this bad joke. >:(
I really aplogize for this. It's a bug and we will release a fix soon. SafeZone browser shouldn't be installed during update if you have disabled it in past.
Sorry for the trouble.

It's fixed. I apparently had both VPS and Program updates set to Manual.

For me opening the stats screen causes avastui process to start eating ridiculous amount of memory and cpu (1,5gb and 20%,and my computer is a good one so 20% cpu is alot). Longer i keep the screen open the more it eats them until it simply just freezes. I can still close the stats screen without a problem but the graphs or anything else wont work. When i close the screen avastui process' memory and cpu consumption goes back to normal. I have reported the problem to avast. Just wanted to say this since couldnt find anyone mentioning it.

Whilst I didn't actually check for this, I can confirm this High CPU and Memory use.
With the Stats RealTime data open:
1. the CPU peaked at 56% and settled to about 50% for as long as I kept it open.
2. There appears to be a memory leak as it just keeps on increasing, currently 1.3GB and still going; 1.5GB.
I have now closed the Stats window:
3. the CPU returns to 00% and memory is returned to a modest 34MB whilst the UI is still open.
4. Closing the avastUI screen and CPU remains at 00% and memory of around 9MB.

Still installs even though uninstalled last time, just 10 mins ago. Very poor show Avast.
-
I've experienced similar on and off in the past. I now no longer trust avast for this,
and if I want to update, I always uninstall/reinstall.
Could be an honest mistake, but their credibility is a little low, in my eyes.
-
Can you Provide check code?? MD5 and SHA1.

Just released a new version to fix for the issue, when SafeZone browser was installed during update, even if user has uninstalled it previously.

In beta they have but one quiestion still remained that In beta they say it is a beta and post it here and say stable?
-
Same time it is a beta/stable???
No, not the same time, beta was out 2 hours earlier ;-) It's quite unusual, but this fix was kinda safe ;-)
And as I said before we always have to release to beta and then to public channel. That's why.
Hope it explains.

So things like AVG is good one"Auto Updates
As we constantly innovate and evolve our protection technology, we’ll make sure you’re automatically updated to maintain top-level defense." but stay way from their Bad ones. :D

This needs to be addressed.
I did an inplace update. SafeZone Browser did not install since it wasn't installed in the lat version.
However, this states that I have Safe Zone.
It should say: If you installed SafeZone Browser it will protect you when you do your Banking and Shopping.
-
I need to check my PC after update, not had a lot of time to check all things yet. So I am not sure about resource hog problem. But I have 2260, and I see here 2261. Is it bug fix? Because I read all topic and I am still confused in version history... ??? I am in stable channel.

This isn't the same BUG - see my reply in the Bug topic mentioned.

Hm, the avastSandbox process is again gone on my system. What the hell is going on with avast! again!??!?!??! SecureVM is enabled.
-
SecureVM is enabled.
But is it actually running? Even after several reinstals I never managed to get it started. It still reports corrupt bootmgr image and I wasn't able to check out what's wrong since avast is using some homebrew version of VHD that I wasn't able to load into any of the existing virtual disk tools.
-
I honestly don't even know anymore. Sometimes Sandbox process is there, the other times it's not, sometimes Secure VM is checked but it's actually not working, sorry, but I wouldn't want to use a car which has dubious security features. Why would I use antivirus I can't be sure of it's actually using all it's got and not just 20% of it? And avast! is VERY broken lately. I really don't know what the hell they are doing.
-

Nothing unusual here, even maybe better.

Me neither. If I didn't have 1,5 year of subscription remaining and wasn't a long time supporter still remembering the good old days of v2(yep that old)/3/4, I would have already switched to something else. I will give them one year to pick the ball up and then abandon the ship if they don't manage.

Hello,
just wanted to let you know about a major flaw that the most recent update brought for me:
I run Windows 7 Pro x64 SP1 on a Samsung 840 EVO, basis system is a Dell Vostro 3350 (no hardware issues).
Upon updating and restarting, my OS gave me a bluescreen shortly after the Windows 7 logo is shown the first time - with error code 0x0000007B, no system file or other error description mentioned.
Luckily, I had a 2-month old backup on another hdd. So by changing disks and booting from the backup I was sure, there was no other hardware failure. I connected the original disk via USB and ran chkdsk /f several times - either no issues found or something about the Volumebitmap - but chkdsk seemed to have repaired it. Switching disks again and trying once more, still bluescreen unfortunately.
Ok, so using the error code: apparently it refers to a problem with booting, e.g. the OS cannot initialize properly. duckduckgo-ing brought a lot about the issue of ahci and ide drivers - I checked:
started Win7 in Secure Mode and ran regedit: for the msahci value was 0 as necessary but for iastorv it was now "3" - changed it but still bluescreen.
Again, in secure mode I ran msconfig and disabled the autostart-services and program for avast - et voilá, original OS came back to life.
Thought, it might have been the update, so to be sure; I removed avast completely and downloaded the most recent installer to have a fresh and clean version - it led to the same bluescreen again!
So, it seems to me that this version changes something in its autostart behaviour or in one of its services that at least my OS does not like. Anyone having the same/similar issues? Maybe you (as in avast-team) could investigate and suggest what might be responsible for the different behaviour?! My OS is up and running again but without avast and I'd like of course to continue using it ;-)
Thx in advance!
Best regards,

Updated okay via the GUI on Toshiba Laptop Windows 10 Home 64 Bit .. but it did install Safe Zone Browser, which I then had to do a manual uninstall on. Ran the standalone installer to update on my Dell 8200 XP Pro SP3 and all other updates, did custom install to just install what I needed (no safe zone or web rep) .. It would be nice if Avast would just update the program in place, keeping the same options / features we had already. If it wants to, the updater could bring up a small box asking if we to add whatever they are trying to add without asking. On the XP machine, some Avast Background Service was initially not running.

C'mon, what the hell is with avast! for god sake!?!??!?!? >:( Build 2260 did install NG and I could see the process. 2261 again DOESN'T install NG anymore even though the Secure VM was checked during install. This is getting absurd. You need a month to fix this damn thing across several builds and then you again break it with one hotfix. WTF

I couldn't figure out why my system was slower than usual with this latest avast! version despite using Samsung 850 Pro for my PC drive. This version doesn't turn off Windows Defender. They are BOTH running together. C'mon!? How did you f**k this up!?
RejZor, are you aware of the fact the no AV does turn the defender off? It turns itself off by wsc, as soon as another AV is registered. Do you see Avast as Antimalware provider in Windows security center? If yes, then that's all we can do with that. We have even filled a bug against Windows for not turning defender off in some cases. Microsoft might fix it but never in older versions that Windows 10 RS1.
In the past there was an API to turn defender off manually, but currently it is deprecated and we are banned from using it.
What exactly is the OS version you are running at the moment? Thanks.

It doesn't matter anymore, I've stopped using avast! for good.

I'm using the latest version of Avast on a computer running windows 10 and windows defender is turned off.

I'm having same problem as huzirt99. Computer starts OK with Avast uninstalled. Gets stuck starting even with fresh Avast install. Win7. Avast Free has been on computer for 3 years.
Follow the instructions posted by Asyn.
I can't because computer would not start with Avast installed. So I uninstalled Avast when in Safe Mode.
Am I correct that to follow those instructions you have to have Avast installed?
Question. Can I go back and install an older version of Avast Free?
EDIT Ugh, now a 2nd computer of mine is having trouble. Windows Explorer kept crashing. Wouldn't load at all. I uninstalled Avast and immediately Windows Explorer works OK.

First it would be advisable to take this issue into your own new topic (and people can try to help you) as it will become buried in this large topic
No you don't have to have it installed at the start of the clean reinstall process as you have uninstalled it. You need to download the uninstall utility and run that (it will handle the boot into safe mode) and when complete reboot into normal mode.
Now you can install the version of avast.
Download the avast uninstall utility - http://www.avast.com/uninstall-utility (http://www.avast.com/uninstall-utility).
Download your version from the links at the start of this topic https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=185199.0 (https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=185199.0).
If you still have questions then please start your own new topic and we can continue.

Aren't Flash Player updates for IE handled by Win10/Windows Update now ?
Which is probably why it is having hassle.

It should probably not check for those updates on a System that's running Windows 10. :)

I would say that should be the case, if the win10 windows updates definitely handles plash player updates for IE. I can't confirm, not being a win10 user.
I wonder what the flash player update policy is in relation to flash player in Edge. Also if it uses the activeX or plug-in version of flash player or if it doesn't use flash player, but HTML5 covering it.
-
I can attest that both IE 10 and 11 and Edge flash updates are covered by Windows Update in Windows 10.
HTML5 is not yet available for Edge at this time and the flash version used in Edge is the active-X version. Hope this helps.
As far as using the avast software updater directly, I don't do that, but go instead directly to the vendor's site to get the updated file required. Doesn't matter what is reported as insecure, procedure is the same for all.

To me it seems avast! team has to scrap entire current thing and start from scratch. This thing is way too broken and problematic on so many ends they don't even know how to fix it properly. Just scrap it and start from clean. Every program AV that did this so far showed great results. It seems avast! needs the same.

I updated two Windows 10 machines today to 2261 (one 32-bit and one 64-bit). On both machines, the IE browser extension was unregistered after the update. The file aswWebRepIE.dll still exists, but the corresponding registry entries are no longer present. Is this a bug or a deliberate decision by Avast to remove this feature. If so, why?
Thanks

Firstly, I don't use windows 10. But I found out something in the forums today relating to the AOS add-on/extension with windows 10. IE will only allow it if it gets it from the App Store, that is why it isn't being installed.
See https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=185597.0 (https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=185597.0).
-
The latest version of IE only allow add-ons through the Windows Store.
That will also hold true for extension added to Microsoft Edge.
-
Well, it was working just fine with IE this morning with the previous production build of Avast - so I find that hard to believe.
I understand Edge may be a different matter, but I'll worry about that if/when Microsoft finish it!
-
I've reported this to Avast. Let's see if they have something to add.
-
I can now see from the update log that build 11.1.2253 logged registration of the IE add-on by calling regsvr32.exe to register these 32-bit dlls (and where appropriate, the 64-bit equivalents):
- AswWebRepIE.dll
- AswWrcIEBroker32.dll
The log for 11.2.2261 shows the same calls to regsvr32.exe, but adds the /U switch, ie de-registers the dlls.
I have now got the add-in back and working using the following simple scripts:
REM Use this script on 64-bit Windows
c:\windows\syswow64\RegSvr32.exe "C:\Program Files\AVAST Software\Avast\aswWebRepIE.dll"
c:\windows\syswow64\RegSvr32.exe "C:\Program Files\AVAST Software\Avast\aswWrcIEBroker32.dll"
RegSvr32.exe "C:\Program Files\AVAST Software\Avast\aswWebRepIE64.dll"
RegSvr32.exe "C:\Program Files\AVAST Software\Avast\aswWrcIEBroker64.dll"
REM Use this script on 32-bit Windows
RegSvr32.exe "C:\Program Files\AVAST Software\Avast\aswWebRepIE.dll"
RegSvr32.exe "C:\Program Files\AVAST Software\Avast\aswWrcIEBroker32.dll"

Since (auto)updating, I'm no longer able to create a rescue disk (USB) :(
"Failed to create the rescue disk"
This happens if I try to overwrite the rescue usb created with previous version, or a new blank usb - both are Kingston DataTraveller 8GB.
Previous version (not updated) on other computer will still create rescue disk to both these usb, so confident that this is an Avast! problem, not usb problem.
Any suggestions?

Hi, yes we removed the browser extension from IE on Windows 10 in the latest version. The reason is that the usage of IE on Windows 10 is very low (most users prefer Edge or alternative browsers) and the impact on performance of IE was too heavy. For that reason we decided not to support AOS IE plugin on Windows 10 and rather will make extension for Edge, when available.
-
Martin
Thank you for your explanation, though I must say I find your reasoning incoherent. One of the things that has discouraged me from moving to Edge is the lack of support for such extensions! My case is for home use, but bear in mind also that any business users with the LTSB version of Windows 10 do not have the option of Edge or any other Universal Apps. IE will be more commonly used on those devices.
I certainly do not take kindly to something that was labelled simply as an "Update" arbitrarily removing a feature that I have paid for. Even more annoying is that was done without giving any warning that functionality was being deliberately removed. This is very bad practice!

We-e-e-lll, upgraded over-the-top to 11.2.2261 just now in Admin, seems to work okay in User. Like the GUI, it seems more intuitive than previous. I can't really make any complaints as I've kept the minimalist settings from the previous 2015 edition, just File Shield and Home Network Security.
@Vlk - Please, when scanning/"fixing" the hosts file, can Avast! only remove single entries? Deleting the entire file suddenly extinguishes my own security methods, exposing my browser to places it shouldn't redirect to... Problem is that some/many of the entries may well be entities that Avast! doesn't like, but because they're pointed to 127.0.0.1 they are by definition harmless. You should look for that before you do anything else.
System is in sig.

Would you have an example of a mistreated hosts file? When is it detected (on-access vs. on-demand scan)?
Sounds like the whole file could be detected by a non-specific signature, because specific hosts file processing should remove only the affected lines (and not when they point to localhost), as you're suggesting.
-
@igor - sorry, no. The last incident was early- or mid-last year IIRC, then I slapped an exclusion on it and the backup on a data drive as well.
But the file was simply sucked up into the Chest, nothing was altered in it. Detection is almost certainly on-access, as I have no reason at all to specifically scan it.
When it happened, all I did was tell the Chest to Put It Back! That was Avast!2015, v10. I never did find any host-file options in that version.

Good Day All
Is there an new update on this version as I am using AVAST Premier and I am getting be blue screen of death with this new version, with error kernel security error I have disabled visualization but the program ant working correctly if this is disabled. When I login, in the program I am getting Unexpected error or server cant be found (An unexpected error occurred on the server, we are working on the solution) I do also use the password function that does not work correctly and the senc is like off on it is there any way I can get a copy of the last build that work the update that came out in Jan if I can remember correctly
-
@igor - did you mean "Do I have a hosts file that was actually pinged by Avast ?" Sometimes I'm a bit slow :(
Since the only thing I've ever done to my hosts file was add a couple of entries, yes I do have. If you want I can chuck a copy up to DropBox for you to play with.
Gordon.
-
@gordon451: I meant the hosts file that was detected by Avast (and moved to Chest as the subsequent operation)... or rather, a file that still is detected - because if it only happened in 2015 and it's not detected anymore, I'm afraid it could be quite hard to find out what went wrong.

@igor - unfortunately, I can't persuade Avast to ping my backup copy of hosts, which I have unexcluded (and backed up!!!!!).
... because specific hosts file processing should remove only the affected lines (and not when they point to localhost), as you're suggesting.
It may be that versions after 10.0.2206 did implement proper processing of the hosts file. But as hosts is what I consider to be an essential system file, there's no way I'm taking chances with it, so it will always be excluded from scans of any type. I don't consider I'm taking a huge risk here as K-Meleon is a fault-intolerant browser, so unless a malicious/compromised website is using bog-standard scripting it won't get anywhere.
So I might put this one to bed and allow everyone to get back on topic. If Avast does ping my sacrificial hosts file, I'll put it up on DropBox or something and give youse a tinkle.
Gordon.

Hi all,
I am happy to announce new version AVAST 2016 (build number 2016.11.2.2261).
...
We hope you enjoy the new version!
AVAST Team
Congratulations!
But I'm not happy at all :(
Avast has been updated and started its intellectual search procedure and wrote the report with some green and red marks. Plus suggestion to eliminate "red" ones. But why should I believe it? Where is the log of its work? Details about directories, bad apps and so on? There is no any info ABOUT LOG OR ITS DIRECTORY in the dialogs, alas!
I don't like apps that keep me as dummy and don't show any SERIOUS info but answer a lot of marketing questions (at the help page) which I haven't asked!

It's most likely all the servers don't have the update yet - you will get it in a bit.
I would be wary of updating at the moment though since someone has reported an issue with protection not starting.

Has 11.2.2262 been released as a stable version?
It's a beta.
I've got this when I look at update.
I'm not on the BETA channel.
If they really have released this, I bloody hate it when the beta build doesn't get changed when it becomes a Regular Release version.
It just cause confusion all around.

Yes plus there's been no announcement of the new version and it's been nearly an hour since I got the notification.

in setting ->program i choose
ask when update is available .
i guess it's a good choice in order to have faults with not reliable program updates .
what do you think?

Well, it could just be an issue for the user who reported it - I said it just as a precaution.

I cannot find a function "Rescue Disk" in my Avast free 11.1.2253 ...
Maybe you need to upgrade to the latest version or, look a bit harder. ??? :)
Weeks later - version is 11.2.2262, and still no rescue disk under tools ...
