Yeah, seems like so. I've restarted the VM and it displays as intended now :)

So far so good. No hiccups, no issues. We'll see how this beta goes. One thing I noticed: Avast Free online setup does not let user uncheck SafeZone browser.

EDIT:
I liked the PUP part of the introduction slides. I hope it returns.

I thought this was the 2016 Beta ???

In Windows 10 Insider Preview build 10547, I never got a chance to go beyond this.
Once the computer rebooted, I was greeted with the following:

Once I hit the Resolve button, the system froze. Rebooting didn't help.
Each time the system came up, it locked up once the avast icon appeared in the sys tray.
I've now totally removed AIS and am about to try the free version.

NEW: Passwords - Avast can now manage your passwords and generate strong passwords for you. Just one password to remember.
 - checks your passwords security
 - stores your passwords securely
 - includes browser extensions for easier logging in and form filling
 - generates strong passwords

So EasyPass will be discontinued with v.2016? LOL, I still have almost 3Y of licence left and it seems with v.2016 it will be useless  ;D Will it be able to import all passwords from EasyPass?

You will be able to import your passwords from EasyPass, you will also get premium features of Avast Passwords for free.

Wow, this Beta really came as a surprise for me :)
As I have to make some preparations first, I will take a look at it in the weekend.

Known issues:
...
- “Shielded Window” mode in SafeZone browser doesn't work yet.

I guess this is the "SafeMode" for dangerous websites, so you can run them on a separate browser in a Virtual Machine ?
At least that was the description I got earlier.

Greetz, Red.

The strange thing is that on a different computer, the update through the UI worked like a charm.
This computer had AIS which I removed and now can't even get the free version installed.
