Before anyone else states that "it works for me"..
To verify this issue, you need to perform a clean install offline (using the offline installer), and then try to configure the program update settings offline!
This is how you reproduce this particular issue (which have never existed in previous Avast versions)!!

Well, doing an offline install while completely offline will, when done this way, give you a different outcome than if you were online while installing.  Granted, if you have Windows 10, you are protected by Windows Defender and are safer doing this online than when installing on XP with no a/v installed.  So, the option to install while online an a/v while running XP isn't a really safe option.  To me, this shows how old XP really is and points to the fact it really needs to be put to bed.

I've seen fixes come in while online and installing vs. and when installing offline they don't.  Only fix for is to run Avast EmUpdater/connect to the internet after install is done and/or reboot, which will automatically invoke EmpUdate anyway on restart.

Program update OK.What I've seen so far. The lack of translation in my licenses is not translated into Portuguese from Portugal and Portuguese Brazilian.I do not know if other languages besides the this also occurs,even with clean installation is english.

Bug is with the behavior shield, the avast icon is suddenlythe icon  status changes for attention.I open the interface avast and it shows that the behavior shield is disabled, I close the interface and icon returns to show that it is ok.but put the mouse pointer and displays the attention message.

Hi,
since the update to the new version I have no access to the network. (Intern/Extern) It also don´t depent which browser I use.
If I deactivate all Avast Modules the network access works.

Which Avast version ?? Free Paid, which one? Sounds more like a firewall problem.
This is what Avast recommended: https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=221335.msg1473689#msg1473689

I thought you planned to stop using the term "Security update" for a new version of the program.  Still low priority, I suppose.

no, we just changed the urgency from yellow to green

This is fixed now.

O avast e bom Recomendo.

O avast com esta atualização. Tirou a capacidade operacional. Deixando muito a desejar.
com esta atualização a licença continua ativa. Mas caso queira reinstalar. o software as licenças pagas. Sumiram.

Hello,

Updated avast just now and I found the old problem which was supposed to have been fixed until the previous version.... proxy setting keeps being deleted. The proxy setting is very important to our work environment.

Below is what I captured using procmon.
