Being that the Morphisec feature has been removed,
 
Please confirm:
 that the "Allow usage data to be shared with 3rd. Party for Analytics" box now becomes irrelevant/non-functional, thus leaving the "Enable Advanced Threat Protection" option in the Behavior Shield also non-functional.
Both options visible in this beta UI
Thx :)

First-time problem with UI coming up BLANK/Not responding
One click on Avast Icon (task bar) no response....   second click UI comes up Blank ???

Edit: A 'restart' did not resolve the issue. After a 'shutdown' the UI now appears normal

I will add, there have been some UI glitches/hangs for me with this beta

I'm definitely having UI issues in this beta that wasn't an issue before.
One click on the Avast taskbar icon, results in 'no response', the next (2nd) click the UI comes up Blank White. Right click functions also don't respond.

THanks Asyn,
I restarted and the issue resolved. Still it's an issue that wasn't apparent before.
Maybe a clean reinstall of this beta. :-\
Think I'll wait to see if any devs have seen this issue.

You're welcome. As the UI is still work in progress, I'd suggest to wait and see.

Edit

I'm wondering that too. That feature has no purpose then. Also, why was Morphisec added to stable version and then removed like 2 weeks later?

Hello everyone,

My Avast Premier is updated, but the version is somehow incorrect... version is correct, but build is still .4159. Shall I assume that the update did not go well? Need a fresh reinstall?

Wondering same thing as well,  was it only a 2 week trial of that?  or what gives, why added to stable version in first place

Afaik, it was only included in beta-channel builds.

I've only been using stable build and Advanced Threat detection was present and only available if you enabled 3rd party reporting...

Yes, but that was only related to the GUI, not the function itself.

Another issue just noticed today, click on the Avast taskbar icon and absolutely no response. Right click no response.
I Will try restart.

Edit: A reboot cleared up this glitch for now. GUI issues/glitches more apparent for me in this beta

... was trying to first understand whether other users experienced the same...  now I did it and the version is correctly shown as .4172. Not sure whether is was only a UI issue or some components were really not updated...
