Has the known bug of the Avast UI automatically opening once a scheduled scan finishes been fixed? Avast technical support has said this is a known bug, but there hasn't been any solutions in last few releases.

I am running Windows 7 x64 with Avast 2015.10.2.2014

That bug isn't with the current (stable) release.

Please create your own thread on the Avast main forum, not the BETA.

That as far as I'm aware has nothing to do with avast, but the great china firewall ???

So a program update wouldn't change that.

EDIT As in the other reply you got posting the same question (https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=167184.msg1196111#msg1196111) - please don't post duplicates it just duplicates the work for those trying to help.

It rather depends on your settings and and you don't mention that.

The AVAST 2015.10.2.2215 R2 RC2 SP1 build is a beta and you should only receive this if you had previously taken part in the beta testing program.
