I have not encountered the WHITE SCREEN as yet in this beta.
Have you provided logs that Avast (Petr) asked for?

Is the Firefox https scanner fixed or not yet?

Thanks Petr, testing it asap...

So far, the new beta is running smooth here.
Note, seems I'm back on the old smart-scan now.

Hi,
Is this new beta protected against the The Astaroth Trojan? this trojan This version injects a malicious module into one of Avast's processes. The payload files are masqueraded as JPEGs, GIFs, and extensionless files, and contain the Astaroth Trojan modules. can you clear me on this please. I´m very worried about this one.
Regards,

Yes, I've been double rebooting installations/updates as a rule for a while now. ;)
Lots of progress made in this beta. :)
-
Is this new beta protected against the The Astaroth Trojan?
Yes. (It also has been fixed in V19.2 via EMU.)
-
I'm using this Beta but I don't understand what this scan is.
See Screen Shot

What is this new element (Advanced Issues) in the Smart Scan ?
Hopefully not the same as the old Sensitive Data and can this element of the Smart Scan be deselected ?
I get the impression this is going to offer various Avast paid Components, trusting sort aren't I (not) ;D
-
New Smart-Scan... (Preview for the interested ones)
Interesting UI showing, which version?
I only have the malware and Advanced Threats showing in my UI (.342)

I'm on 342 as well.

Really nothing new. Advanced scan simply points out items that a paid protection might have tagged.
For me that was Ransomware protection for secure folders.
If you click on the fix now, it shows the items and the option to purchase. The other option is to skip the items.

Finishes with DONE. Have rebooted x times run the Smart Scan xtimes; nothing changes, only 2 catagories showing ever (since updating to this beta).
Edit: Unless this newer Smart Scan UI is delivered in increments to bets users (can't see that) I guess a clean install of beta via link download is next option (if issue isn't resolved)

Repair ??? Clean install ???

@ Bob
No worries, figured that because I have not got the "software updater" and the Browser app installed that would relate to the extra entries shown in your UI> Browser Threats and Outdated Apps
My UI doesn't show those entries as I Haven't got the related options installed, ;)
-
That would make a difference. Can't scan if the component isn't installed. :)

Exactly.

While the White Screen issue has not appeared for me in this beta, the UI does "Hang" at times and not show UI Options.Sometimes, the UI will finally appear properly, sometimes not and requires closing window and activating UI again from Icon.
The Screenshot displays what I see when I first try to enter UI from Taskbar Icon.

Hi, I had this only once in the last beta, therefore I didn't even report it. Do you get it constantly..?

Pretty much, enough to make me wonder WHY so much issue with Avast GUI, never had UI issues before.
What has made the UI such an elephant and inconsistent/unpredictable?

I cant confirm that problem. Can you be more specific? From what option to which other option ???
-
After going through all options seems things had to settle in after initial upgrade. Responding fairly well now.
Not scanning properly> Also when first initiating 'Smart Scan", it moves through the "malware scan" in just a few seconds and then through "advanced issues" in a few seconds and then "Done".
When the Smart Scan is initiated immediately again, then the malware scan runs properly/completely showing scanned items and then scans through "Advanced Issues" properly.
This was apparent in the last build and can be reproduced consistently. Runs 1/4 through both Malware and Advanced then DONE.
-
Aside from 'Smart Scan' not running consistently with the same progress (see previous post above), I am also seeing a "hanging UI" when trying to access options.
Screenshot:
This is what I see when the UI is initiated from Avast taskbar Icon, The UI options on the left take almost 30 seconds sometimes more to appear.

-

Thanks pal, testing it asap...
Edit: Nothing to report, the beta is running smooth here.
-
New beta 19.3.2369 has detected my old PVC card software .exe file as malicious/suspecious software file and then it blocked my software. After that I have excluded that . exe file in avast. Before this update earlier version of avast has not shown any suspecious or malicious element in my software.

The 'Ransom Shield' is not starting and has to be manually started.
I only noticed when I enter UI.
NO Notification that this Shield was off! ???
Has happened a few times now

My notice of shields being off always came via a notice in Defender. Strange as that may sound.

So I've been watching UI versions and up until a few days ago the version was 1.0 .345
However, I then noticed a few days ago it graduated to 1.0.348
Today I see it's back down to .345
Anyone else notice this change???

Confirmed, same here.
-
Avast UI was reverted from 348 to 345 because 348 contains bug with explorer scan (scan via context menu). Fix is in progress.
