A restart is required for the fix to work.

Well the build number isn't the version number and that hasn't changed 12.3.2280 (unless you are using the beta version 12.3.2281). So I don't know where the .0001 increment in the build number comes from or what it actually entails.

If the program version changes there should be a topic about it and what it contains, this isn't the case on build number increments. When avast checks for program updates, as far as I'm aware it is looking for program version update available, not build number.
