Avast does not automaticaly update.
« on: December 16, 2017, 09:31:34 AM »
Both major but mostly minor updates DO NOT AUTOMATICALY update dispite the fact that in the settings auto update is always chosen.
For major updates Windows allert nottify me to update but no warning or nottice for minor updates.
In the 1st picture see the minor update i have manualy made today and in the 2nd that the auto update is chosen as option.



I have a broadband internet connection, does this have anything in conflict with the option "i am connected with dial up modem"?

- OS..? (32/64 Bit..? - which SP/Build..?)
- Other security related software installed..?
- Which AV(s) did you use before Avast..?
