I've been experiencing this issue for a little over a month now. I update several computers installed with Avast Free in our environment with the offline definition update. Just over half the computers fail with a -1073741819 error code. There is also an empty last.dump file created in the directory of the vpsupd.exe file.

Usually the PC's access the vpsupd file from a file share, but running from a local folder also fails with the same results.

I'm downloading from: https://install.avcdn.net/vpsnitro/vpsupd.exe.

Any help will be appreciated.

That site leads to the exact same download link. Apparently avdcn.net is where Avast is hosting their files.

Issue is still there.
