Avast mobile security virus definitions update failed
« on: October 10, 2019, 06:50:13 PM »
I am trying to resolve an issue with Avast Mobile Security on my tablet. When I try and update the virus definitions it says update failed.

I am running version 6.23.8 and the virus definitions are 190926-00 (26 September 2019). I am using a Samsung Galaxy Tab2 running Android 7.

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app, clearing app data and the cache but this hasn't worked.

Any help would be appreciated
