Hi eveyone,
I`m glad to announce that new beta version is ready - 20.9.2433 (build 20.9.5709).
What's new
CyberCapture: results now can be found in Notification Centre
Password Protection: your passwords are now protected in MS Edge and Avast Secure Browser also
What was fixed
Scanning of autostart services - we now rescan all services started before the AV protection
Reading licenses from other installed products does not cause deadlock
JAWS screen reader - Tray menu now can be opened (Shift+F10)
Behavior Shield detection dialog is no longer displayed over File Shield detection dialog (double detection)
Known issues
Deleting files from Virus Chest might result in a UI Freeze or crash
Installation takes more time in some cases

Thanks Karel, testing it asap...

Avast is really awesome. Now in 20.9 beta that tray icon is so much better with a screen reading software, this is the exact thing i was pointing at in slack, also running smooth for now.

Great! I am assuming that it will then be in the stable version 20.9 :)

I have one more thing to report on this:
You should put in the changelog that the tray icon now works with screen readers, not just with jaws, but with all of them. So it should just say the tray now works with screen readers or whatever. Since it's pretty much the same thing, i use NVDA for example, and it works with both.

Thanks Karel, testing it asap...
• No details in German splash screen (Screenshot)
• Else, the beta is running smooth - no noticeable issues (so far)
• Side note, some additional data has been sent via AvBugReport

Thanks for the new beta :)

HI,
How about the conflict with a part of avast free edition and Windows installer?
I have the same issue coming back 2months after a stable version was released.
The last version, block the windows update when new files must be installed
In French " Windows installer a cessé de fonctionner " maybe in English " Windows installer stop to work "

Hi guys, for the interested ones - there's a new feature called Leak Alerts.
-
Updated, so far so good.
-
But what is leak alerts and where can i find it?
-
Oh, i found this feature now and it's great. It's good that it's now directly in avast premium security and not in just avast secure browser, this is very helpful indeed.
-
Yes, I can confirm. It was a part of latest UI update (independent on program update release).
