Title: Avast conflicts with "Keepsolid SmartDns"
Post by: Debtik on October 25, 2020, 06:24:01 PM
Sir,
I have "Keepsolid Smart Dns" subscription to watch any streaming platform by just changing the DNS on my pc. It does not work when the avast protection is on hence I have to switch off its protection so that the SmartDNS software could invoke its DNS SERVERS on my pc. This problem has been the same ever since i have started using this smartdns software by Keepsolid. I do not know which avast feature conflicts with that software hence I request you to please help me with the same. I have a paid version of Avast.

Disable Avast Real Site and reboot.

yes i try to do that but now AVAST has become whole RED in taskbar and as well as on its menu. so how to remove that Red warning permanently (warning to enable real site) ?

If you go to Menu>Settings>Troubleshooting and Click 'Add/Modify Components then "Uncheck" Real Site from Left Column and reboot that should resolve your issue.

Thankyou sir for the reply. since the Reali site is a paid feature. is not there any way around for the SmartDns software to work, as "Real Site" is one of the most important features of avast? and needs not to be disabled?

You're welcome. (I never used Keepsolid Smart Dns, so I can't comment on it.)

okay sir. so Real site was responsible for it. Any way possible for a way around as there are many DNS / proxy suppliers on the market. it would be great if the "Real site" feature goes hand to hand with software of DNS changers .

Thankyou
