Hi! WI-FI inspector blocks access for my mobile devices in my own home :(( . Both devices has avast anti-virus. But I can't update the DB because I can't get access. All was fine before 9th of June after the anti-virus downloaded the updates. I tried different software to find the reason. All software notified me, that the devices were connected and all is fine, but I couldn't open any pages via my browser. Meanwhile I can get access to internet from both devices at the shop of my friend.
I can't switch on|off this WI-FI inspector, Avast offers me only uninstall it. I really don't want to uninstall this component, but at the same time I want to get access to the internet from my devices.
Best to start a new topic and provide more details.

It would be better in that case on demand scanner displays result of scanning in pop up notification instead of showing practically blank window only option to Run smart Scan. Also no such results displayed in Scan History if on -demand scanner as quoted by you actually runs. I have tried opening files from & saving edited files to USB drive. But in scan history, no record of on demand scanning seen. Also earlier at start of windows,  system scan would run along with boot time scan and results displayed but in newer versions this doesn't happen. I am using Avast Premier not free Antivirus. Only thing in name of on demand scanning that happens when you open files from USB drives or attachments, a huge black window is displayed blocking you from using PC till you close the window.

Apparently they fixed everything but the REscue Disk feature, which was working fine a couple of months ago.  I just upgraded to the new version and once again, every attempt to create a rescue disk on USB terminates in an error.  this was  a problem last summer that was fixed at some point, now it is broken -- again.

I ditched McAfee because of their lame products and ridiculous prices. Now I'm wondering if I've gone from frying pan to the fire.

It's working in the latest beta.

Well after looking and looking Finally found where to fix things, Applied new Rules for all the Games Applications and Utilities I use so yes I an now leave Avast on and not have it stop my program or even my internet to stop working. Yes!!!  and if you don't know then go to firewall Settings and then rules and make "Custom" rules nto the default or you may have the same issues I did. Was not easy as it's well hidden but then when you find it, set all you want as "Custom" not the default or it will also have a Block part in it like my Star Wars game and other games and even my Internet Network Driver. So hope you all can find and fix it like me.
