Previous version downloads
« on: December 23, 2017, 10:54:53 AM »
Does anyone know where we can get the previous versions of AVAST from.  Since the latest version has left us without email protection (Major **** up) , it will be an option to uninstall Avast and install the previous version and update the defs only, until Avast can fix the bug.

Does anyone have a URL where we can get previous versions from?

And by that you mean it is not there? ... or not working?




All (that i know of) mail providers have spam/virus filter on there mail servers so you are protected

You can test here:

May not work with free mail providers like Gmail .... and others, because these test has been run a million times with these mail providers

by that I mean  the email protection breaks Outlook 2016.  You have to disable the Avast Addin to get Outlook working, which is pretty bad, leaving email wide open.

Yes, a lot of email providers have email offerings but a lot of us prefer our own so we can control our own emails.
