Frustrated With Avast Passwords
« on: January 07, 2016, 05:45:45 PM »
I recently upgraded to Avast Premier, and with that came the Passwords feature. Seemed to work for awhile, but now when I use SafeZone browser, accounts that had been auto-filling (with the little Avast Passwords icon in the fields) are no longer doing so. The reason being, I guess, because that initial Avast Passwords window that WAS opening (something along the lines of "do you want to enable passwords") no longer loads when I use SafeZone. Rather annoying. Guess I'm back to using Chrome... :-\

I'm also a bit confused by something else. On my Avast licenses page it shows that I am subscribed to Avast Premier - which, again, I recently upgraded to - as well as Avast Secureline and Avast Cleanup. I thought these latter two were part of the Premier package and would be rolled into that license (although I guess I did make separate purchases of those products when I still had just Avast Internet Security.) It shows that Secureline and Cleanup will auto-renew on October 5th, 2016 and December 20th, 2016 respectively. Should I disable auto-renew? Am I mistaken in thinking that these two features are bundled with Premier? And if they ARE bundled with Premier then they shouldn't auto-renew on the dates I just mentioned, correct?

Never used them, but to my knowledge they are separat products

Pondus is correct. Secureline and Cleanup are separate services and require individual Licenses.
As for the Password component; this is relatively new and from what I'm reading still has bugs.
