Avast Primium refusing to update.
« on: August 30, 2018, 12:32:55 PM »
I'm being told that a new version of the program is available, however every time I attempt to update, it fails out while trying to download.  I get the following ever single time:

   Last encountered error:Error:HTTP server returned error
   Total time:                     10 s
   Download time:             2 s
   Downloaded files:          10 (0.00 KB)

I get that every time, no matter what I do.

Current version is reported as:  18.5.2342 (build 18.5.3931.358)

Can anyone assist me in sorting out how I fix this?

Thanks to anyone who can help.

As CraigB says, he means the full file offline download (262 MB) and not the online download (6.0 MB), which you seem to have trouble with.

Look for this one in the link he provided:
