Hi,

Avast Business Antivirus version 19.6 will be released on July 24, 2019.

Release Summary

This release contains new improvements and bug fixes to our Avast Business Antivirus client.
Avast Business Antivirus 19.6 will be available for new installations straight away. All existing devices with Avast Business Antivirus 19.5 or lower will start the automatic upgrade to 19.6 at a later time.

If you wish to upgrade your devices to 19.6 prior to the automatic upgrade, then you can create a new Task (Update device – Program update task) from your console.

A system reboot will be required to complete the installation. There will be no forced reboot unless you have set this in your device policy settings. Servers will never reboot regardless of your device policy settings.

Try manually updating today. However, please keep in mind that the update requires restarting the device, so you may wish to update servers sometime after business hours.
