Avast anti-spam toolbar in Ms outlook 2010 now missing after latest update;
Again after another avast premier update Jan 4 2019, I have lost my anti-spam (white list/ black list ) tool bar.
in the past when this happens I would usually completely uninstall avast premier, as well as the registry to retrieve it. and then reinstall.
However, after this last update, no go.
I ensure the anti-spam component is installed and the splash screen is ticked on.
I try to activate the add-in in the coms, but it still remains inactive... very frustrating.

I also lost bank mode in the secure browser, and had to reinstall it but no go.

Please advise,
Thank you

Found an unclickable setting, well you wouldn't want to turn it off anyway but still...

It is because checkbox in Personal Privacy: "Allow usage data to be shared with 3rd parties for analytics" is not checked. We want to add a tooltip explaining that.

Why it need enable Allow usage data to be shared with 3rd parties for analytics?

While the new update looks great and seems to use less computer resources, which also is good.

But.. Avast has starting killing my games, i try to run a steam game, Avast flag it as a virus and kills it.
same game never had any issues before the update, and while this is an Early Access game things like this shouldn't happen.

i tried adding my entire steam folder under exceptions, did not help.
added the game itself in exceptions, did not help.

changed settings to "Ask before doing anything", it still kept killing and deleting the game .exe

is there a way to downgrade the version?
i've used Avast for many years, but if it's starting to kill my games i'll rather remove Avast and install something else tbh.

Best regards

Advanced threat protection uses 3rd party service to protect processes - it checks if processes are not morphed.

v18
Quote
Hardened mode:
Moderate: blocks only files which have bad ratings or no rating at all. All other files are allowed to run.
Aggressive: only chosen files with known high ratings are allowed. All other files are prevented from running.

v19
Simply Hardened mode without settings. In what mode does this option work now?
Moderate

If i turnoff "Allow usage data to be shared with 3rd parties for analytics" is it still protect me from Advance threat or not?

I am having the same issue as well.  All I can do is disable all shields for 10 minutes after I log into the game and re-able them once I'm logged into the game.  Avast seriously needs to fix this ASAP.

I'll do it later on today.  The problem is the company that makes "X-Trap" has an old version our server has the "10.2016_2518" X-Trap version and the company refuses to update the security software.  So their tech support is pretty much useless.   What I don't get it.  Why is Avast out of nowhere getting blocked with X-Trap?  Every version I used since 2007 hasn't been blocked by X-Trap or I had to add the game folder to the exclusion list and now it's completely blocked.

That's exactly why Avast asked for logs. They may reveal what changed and what's causing the conflict.

Exclusion (imported from previous version) don't work any more and bring a Windows crash on some programs excluded !!! >:(
Win 7 64 bits french (updated with the internal system - Avast free version)

Any fix coming ?

That's nothing we've ever seen (and the internal handling of exclusions hasn't changed AFAIK, just the UI).
So - what exactly are your exclusions, what program crashes (and when)?
These are two program widgets (DXWidget.exe) build with Stardock DeskopX (and running since years and years) and crashing now on boot now... did a roll back to previous Avast free and everything's going right way !!!!
