do I need an upgrade?
« on: June 18, 2018, 02:19:17 PM »
I bought a license for Avast Premier, Avast Cleanup Premium and Secureline VPN. Do I need an upgrade to Windows 10 E 5 ? as my operating system doesn`t have attack surface reduction and network protection ?

What version of Windows are you running now?

How did you determine this "missing protection" ???

Because the testing software uses Windows Defender to protect systems, these tests are geared to use definitions for this MS antimalware product.

Do you plan on setting up a corporate network?

No, I don`t have such plans.
Network protection is assured by Avast , right? but how about the attack surface reduction ?
