AvastSS.scr not working anymore ?
« on: February 27, 2017, 10:46:04 PM »
My previous version of Avast had a screensaver to analyse my disk. After some updates, it is still there , but it is impossible to launch. So I deleted it, uninstalled Avast and reinstalled this antivirus... But I can't see anymore the avatsSS.scr file anywhere in my pc !
Could someone tell me what happens ? If Avast does not support its screen saver ?

No clue what you mean with "previous version" but the screen saver scanning has been removed several versions ago.

Hello and thank you for your answer, After many many updates, I used this screen saver without exactly knowing since when it was there ! But suddendly it didn't work, when I decided to use it again. I found the files I deleted in an old pc with windows xp and I copied it in my new pc with vista, but nothing happened, it still didn't work.
But if you are sure Avast doesn't support it anymore, my subject is closed !

I suggest you check the release history to see what things have changed.

Oddly enough, AvastSS.scr, the topic of this post is never mentioned. At least not that I can see.
