Has anyone figured this out? I still can't get my password generator option to show up like it used to. All of the sudden its just gone. I'm using Avast Internet Security version 17.2.2288. My password vault is unlocked and I've double checked all the settings. The only other thing I can think of is a Java issue if this function requires it. I'm guessing it had to do with the major update coming into 2017 but I haven't been able to find anything on the web about it. PLEASE HELP!!!
If Avast took this feature away from the new version then thats the last straw for me. Their decision to flood not just their free versions with adds, but the paid versions that I use on my Windows 10 PC my family's Android pads and phones. The adds are so bad its almost impossible sometimes to get around them. I could only imagine how hard it is for disabled or senior users who may not have the dexterity of younger or healthier users who are barely able to navigate the teeny tiny little x way out of sight. Unno the one where you have to hit it just right or your taken off course to some stupid advertisement half of which look like spam to me just waiting to infect your device. Thank you Avast for forcing us to pay for your most expensive version which has extra's most of us will never use. You have a real racket going on.
It pains me to say what I said because I have been with avast for years back when I built my first 64 bit win 98 PC and couldn't find a free antivirus until I stumbled upon Avast. Ever since I've recommended Avast to just about every person I meet in need of antivirus. I can honestly say I've never had a complaint until recently when the adds got unbearable especially when I remembered I paid extra for no adds in the past along with extra services they provided. I hope Avast hears my complaints along with many others who feel like Avast sold out. I had no problem paying for what services I wanted but pressuring me to purchase services I don't want in order for your metrics to look better. It's funny how history repeats itself and company's run a good run with satisfied happy customers then realize they've cornered the market and some greedy executives want to squeeze every cent possible from there customers rather than keep them happy, loyal, and referring business to many others. Instead you get greedy and customers begin looking for company's like you used to be. Usually fresh, clean, companies willing to keep their customers happy and give them the services they want. Like I said it pains me saying all of this but maybe my feedback will actually be appreciated and escalated to the right people to make a difference.
OK, I'm off my soap box and back to my original question. WHY IS MY PASSWORD GENERATOR GONE?
