Title: Notifications and pop up messages
Post by: johntimothy.cherry on June 07, 2022, 09:35:36 AM

How do I stop Avast messages and notifications/subscription reminders from appearing on my screen?  I am an online tutor and often share my screen with students.  Avast notifications appear unsolicited often in the middle of a presentation.  It is most distracting!

Hi, see if it helps to run the game/app in DND mode.

PS: You can disable the ads in the paid versions: Avast GUI -> Settings -> Personal Privacy
