My definitions have been stuck on 120921-0 for the last 2 days.
Can somebody please let me know if that is the latest update or if there is a more recent one.
Thanks.

We thrive on information, unfortunately there is none here to advise.

What happens if you do a manual program update from the avastUI, Maintenance, Update ?

Thanks.
I was just surprised that there hadn't been a later update
Having looked in "Maintenance" it says the last attempted update was 12.05.

Effectively it couldn't have been stuck on 120921-0 for two days as that is only yesterday. Depending on the release time of that update (seen in the avastUI,Maintenance, Update) possibly still within a day. Remember there is also time zone differences, with European Central Time being in advance of the USA time zones, this can have an effect of being overdue.

If it reports up to date yet the VPS version is more than a full day old, then that is unusual. This happens on occasion, where the displayed VPS and actual VPS, reported as up to date when a manual check is done are different (out of sync). In which case an avast Repair will usually resolve the out of sync condition, a reboot may be required after a repair.

Thanks,David
I was just a little concerned mainly because the updates for Malwarebytes need attending to.However they have told me that a fix will be coming in a future program update.
