Title: What happened to bank mode?
Post by: rdatish on January 11, 2019, 11:59:03 PM
Avast secure browser has disabled my bank mode, what gives? It is now asking for the latest update (which I have) and licensing (which I have). Running windows 10 and just renewed on 12/28 for 3 PC's. It's been working fine before today. WTH? Thanks.

For now, you can also right-click the avast icon in system tray and select Bank Mode there.

Known bug.

Our BANK MODE is also gone & we can not 'right click' on the Avast icon at all.  So is this a 'BUG' that's happening within the Avast software that will be fixed & everyone will get bank mode back??

The AV part is already fixed, we're waiting for the SB devs to release an updated version.

Bank mode required antivirus update. did it and mode box still greyed out with same message. Cannot get any further. All indications show system up to date. Hope Avast are monitoring forum and fix it soon.

Bank Mode is fixed in the latest version of Avast Secure Browser manually downloaded from Website.
In Browser Update didn't bring the latest version forward yet for me.
