Interesting, the program update after restart has got rid of the old VPS sub-folders but the latest VPS is still 171204-2. A manual VPS update still reports I have the latest version.
After the in UI program update I got the slew of popups, confirm your protection level (well I still have 172 days left on this registration). After confirming my protection level as avast free, I get another in your face popup 'Your loyalty pays off' with no nice 'No Thank you' option.
Used the big X to kill the window and bang up comes another one 'Not ready to commit' try a 60 day free trial (and we all know where that leads. Again no nice 'No Thank you' option only start free trial, once more it is the ugly exit the big X.
I can understand marketing push when you first install, but when you have 172 days remaining on existing registration. But why are we still getting this mess when registration is a thing of the past.
