New Beta version 18.2.5712
« on: September 14, 2018, 02:50:10 PM »
Hello everyone,

We have released another Beta version of Avast Cleanup product!

What's new in Avast Cleanup product?
  • Junk programs feature is now called Unnecessary programs and it is way powerful than before since it is now also able to recommend you programs which haven't been used for some time. Please bear in mind that this functionality starts measuring the last used value from the moment you get the latest version.
  • A few other bugs were squashed for improved stability.

How can you help?
  • If you already have a Beta version installed you should get an update automatically (update checks for a new version every 12 hours) if you don't have it yet proceed with the next step to install it.
  • Download the Beta version: http://tuneup.avast.tools.avcdn.net/tools/avast/betatuneup/avast_cleanup_setup.exe.
  • Execute the installation package and go through the wizard to install the product.
  • The product shall guide you or you can freely navigate through it and try it on your own to see how it works.
  • Please try as much features as you can to see how they work and check whether there are any bugs or unexpected behavior.
  • If you find any bugs during testing, please create a new thread in this forum section.
  • Please provide us also with feedback about what you like most and what you would change.
  • Since we aim to deliver the best Cleanup product - would you add anything to Cleanup that is missing? Do not hesitate to share your feedback!

Known issues
  • Unnecessary programs - In some cases the new feature which monitors when a particular program was used for the last time does not work properly and it takes longer to update the last used value.

Thank you & enjoy the beta testing!
AVAST Team.

- When I click on 3rd party components on info screen, I get a plain text file - intended behavior..?
- Scan progress is stuck at 50%, while scan is still running in the background. (See screenshot)

Hi,

regarding the 3rd party components on info screen, that's ok becuase it is just a summary of the licenses of the components we use.
However the second issue you've described worries me a bit. Could you please provide us with logs from c:\ProgramData\AVAST Software\Tuneup\log\ or run the Log collector utility C:\Program Files (x86)\AVAST Software\Avast Cleanup\tulogcollector.exe and then just send me a PM with the email you entered while sending the logs via the utility so we can check the logs to see what is the problem there?

Thank you for your help and effort!

Hi,

well usually we don't publish the full list of fixed bugs and crashes because lots of them are either fixed internally before they get to the public or they are hidden somewhere "under the bonnet" so it would be pretty boring to mention them.
From my point of view it make sense to talk just about the visible bugs which are either present or have been fixed.

I hope this kind of explains why we usually don't mention which bugs have been fixed.

Thank you.

Well I am sorry that you haven't received any new version from us earlier but we spent quite a lot of time on the new AVG product we have also released to Beta.
I hope we will be able to introduce new versions faster from now on.

Anyway many thanks for sticking around despite all the circumstances!

Hi, I just got updated to the latest beta (5796).
Scan still stops at 50% but now says "Finishing the processing".
