That would appear to be correct at this time.

Not really an issue if you have streaming updates enabled, just look in your avast defs folder and you should see them covering later periods.

"That would appear to be correct at this time."

So,now is Sep 16 ,2019 13:15 in Eastern Europe and the latest def. update is from Sep14.
I understand the "streaming updates" concept ,but what is the point to name the "package" with such precision (-6,that means the sixth package for the day) and not release any other new package for next 2 days????
