REGISTRY CHANGES TO UNINSTALL AVAST FREE - ever been sent them?

[bob3160]

Hi Andrew-Dillon,
it looks like avast logger's severity is set to debug. You can change it in Avast UI  Settings -> Troubleshooting There should be a checkbox "Enable debug logging" - uncheck it please !

! Please do not delete all files in c:\ProgramData\AVAST Software\Avast\log folder ! but use this powershell commad which will delete only amsi log files :
Remove-Item "c:\ProgramData\AVAST Software\Avast\log\Amsi.log.tmp*" -Force

How to launch powershell :
