Hello, anyone at home. I see several people have read my original post, but no replies.
Am I the only one using Avast Rescue Disk, or the only one afficted by the UI not updating % progress?
Whilst the new version of Avast Free updated fine and is otherwise working properly on both my XPSP3 and Win10 1709 machines, the Rescue Disk UI problem persists.
Just in case, I did a repair of avast and then repeated the Rescue USB function. No change, I get same result as previously reported i.e. UI not updating Rescue Disk % progress or its ultimate completion.
I repeat again, if you close the UI during Rescue Disk creation and go back in, i.e. start Rescue Disk again, UI then shows a snapshot of % done, but does not change with time. The only way to view progress is to repeatedly close and re-open the UI which then shows new snapshots of progress each time. If you reapeat the above step it eventually gives you the initial start Rescue Disk or USB options. i.e. has completed.
If you view the contents of the USB, it looks like a new Rescue disk has been created. It is just the UI that does not work properly.
It would be good to know if anyone can check this UI issue is repeatable elsewhere.
