Title: multi users environment
Post by: algasys on March 15, 2007, 09:32:35 AM

Hello everybody,

I would like to know how the Avast update work in a multi users pc.

Precisely, Have I to update only with the Admin account or the update process work whatever the user is?

Thank you very much for helping me.

All users should be able to update the VPS as the auto-update process runs at a System user level I believe, even if run as a manual update a limited user should still be able to update the VPS.

Limited users can't update the program only those with admin privileges.

Why do you ask are you experiencing problems ?
