Restart PC, go to avast settings and find settings for passwords. Reinstall plugins from settings interface. I had the same problem yesterday. Plugins are not installed correctly from the first time, in settings you will see status for plugins "Not installed".
Thanks, will try it when I'm back on a Windows system. Currently using Ubuntu. The only Avast I have on this system is Avast Online Security. :)

G'day ;)

Question my client would like to know will the Avast Password feature like EasyPass will be included in the free version platform, or is this going to be  into the paid version platform only ?
<snip>

By all accounts it is, but in a limited form - those already using (paid for) the avast Easy Pass will be able to get the premium functions of it.

For those of us updating to this RC version, will we still be running beta versions when the final version is released? In other words will I have to uninstall the beta then install the "non-beta?" and also i've had no issues logging in but updating manually still shows there is an update available when already on the latest version.

Not entirely correct. What you are seeing has been reported as a bug in previous posts/topics in the beta sub-forum.

When the regular release of avast 2016 the beta will still update to the regular version without uninstalling.

What you need to be aware of is that having joined the beta testing, as and when the next session of beta testing happens you would get that beta version update.

If you don't want to continue with beta testing in the future then you would need to do a clean install of the regular version update.

BUG: avast kills my Brother DCP-J140W (connected via WiFi on the same network). Printer becomes offline and the is online with avast disabled only...  :-\ It reconnects as soon as I stop avast, and the connection is lost as soon as avast shields enabled.

Update: it's avast firewall who kills my printer. Even with sharing enabled, so no workaround found.

2016.11.1.2239 -  the same. I need to disable avast firewall if I want to print something. My prints are kept securely under the firewall :D :D

Is this still falling under the RC1 update or now RC2 ?

I didn't have an issue with the 2238 build other than a little slow. But on 2239, it is still a little slow, I find an anomaly. The scan appears to have completed and reports as much - but the actual scan of one of the devices still shows scanning/activity.

Fo YLAP,

Easypass users with valid license will get Premium version of Avast Passwords. We work on the import from the EasyPass HTML export but it won't be ready for the first release, but we would like to have it done by the end of year. Until then you can of course still use EasyPass.

Still no description on what each HIPS sensitivity bar means (unlike regular heuristics slider above it in the same menu). Can this be fixed before avast! 2016 rolls into final release?

Thanks, for now moving my passwords manually one by one :) I need to test how it works :)

Version .2239 works for me as well as .2238
My mentioned problem with some sites from China and "Secure DNS" ( https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=177728.msg1260009#msg1260009 ) seems not to be fixed but just disregarded. So I uninstalled "Secure DNS" and everything is working.
