You guys have done something in the registry that blocks all Office 365 apps and Adobe Reader! This is awful. Will the Uninstall work?

You put something in the Debugger Key under each application in the registry.

Bank Mode no longer works on one of my computers (W8) but it does on another (W10) after the update. Please advise.

Software Updater should be fixed later this week, this fix will be independent of the released version of the app (so no need to wait a few more weeks for 20.5, it should start behaving normally even with 20.4). Thanks for your patience.
Good news. :)
It seems to be fixed now, but I'll keep an eye on it. ;)

Have you actually tried to request a refund, you need to give information (that shouldn't be given in a public forum) so they can take action.

Rebooted after update, can't connect to the internet with any web browser or mail program without turning off the firewall.  Everything times out.  If I turn the firewall off it all works.  Checked to make sure I have the latest version.  Running Windows 7 64 bit Professional, fully updated.  Any advice?  Everything was working fine before the update and reboot.

Boa noite!

Toda vez que eu ativo o FIREWALL do meu AVEST PREMIUM SECURITY eu não consigo acessar a internet.

O que eu faço para resolver essa situação?

Agradeço

When I updated manually from the UI, I had "Update failed, something went wrong" error that was also mentioned by many for the 20.3 update also. 

A second manual program update from the UI succeed.
with avast updated to the latest 20.5 version i get amany constant crashes of explorer process when i open the explorer icon rom the taskbar.
I was into hardmode, full reinstall and now get avast ui failed to load, the latest version is very  buggy

VM killed by NEW Avast Version 20.4 (June 2020)
« Reply #56 on: June 24, 2020, 08:55:46 AM »
Hi, I updated Avast program from the menu last week, it all went ok until it wanted to reboot. But my Windows 10.0.18363.900 did not boot any more. It's on VMware ESXi 6.7u3 and I figured out that the VM crashes due to some unsupported instruction. It took me a few days (booting into safe mode each time and playing with the settings of each Avast driver - there's a lot!) to figure out which Avast drivers have the problem - aswSnx and aswSP. So I disabled both and Windows can start but Avast UI cannot, it now says "UI Failed to load".

What is the quickest way to get Avast fully running again? At least my machine is usable again but not sure to what extent it is protected by Avast now. (And unfortunately, I had no VM snapshot of the machine. Next time I promise I'm going to create one!)

Avast 20.5 is a beta version, this topic is about the current regular release 20.4.2410.  So either you are posting in the wrong sub-forum (not the beta one) or you made a typo on the version you installed.

Guys,

This is the third time in as many years when Avast has nuked my machine and many others - why don't you take liability for your poor quality control and install adequate regression test capabilities.  There must be a dozen lessons you should have learnt here - have you?  Now whenever my Workstation goes bizarre I think what has Avast blown - and it's pretty much always you guys.  I have been in IT develop for 35 years now and I am lost at how you let such a powerful program nuke things it shouldn't because you haven't tested it adequately enough - plus don't have a feature - has avast killed something by accident capability - run a test and find out.  Instead we loose sleep and time and suffer anxiety and stress because you blew it with faulty software that caused many people real loss and you should make it up to us - like a money back or a year free subscription offer every time you drop the ball and nuke us - then maybe you would learn if you took it that seriously.

If you have been in IT development for 35 years, then you would know that developers need information to track down issues.  Not all systems have the same installations.

I guess this gets it off your chest and may give you some satisfaction, but it doesn't help pin down any issue that you are currently having.

Just complaining doesn't resolve the problem if there is no details to even try.

Before shooting the messenger, I'm an Avast user just like yourself who has been using Avast Free for over 16 years without any major along the way.  Any issues that I did Have I sent details and way back in the day of 64KB modems, sent a CD by mail because it would have taken an eternity to upload the dump files.
