I've been through the Uninstall process outlined and it's not made any difference. Should the adblocker icon definitely appear on the toolbar?

Can you, please, send me the file "com.avast.AvastSecureBrowser.plist" located in" Users/ <current_user> / Library / Preferences ?

Thank you!

Here you go. There isn't a  "com.avast.AvastSecureBrowser.plist"  but I've attached the closest!

Can you, please, add the attached file in the location: Users/ <current_user> / Library / Preferences.
Once there added the file, open ASB browser and check Diagnostic Information.
Please let me know if you have any issues.

Thank you!

Did you close your browser before adding the file?
The steps should be:
1. Close browser.
2. Add file "com.avast.AvastSecureBrowser.plist" in: " Users/ <current_user> / Library / Preferences"
3. Open browser.
Once you have added the file, you should have all the extensions.


Thank you.

Yes, I had closed it. I've done it again as well and still no change.

Can you, please, check if the file "com.avast.AvastSecureBrowser.plist" was added in your path: /Users/mike/Library/Preferences?

Thank you!

Ok, I've spotted the issue - the plist file you provided was com.avastAvastSecureBrowser.plist - missing the "." between avast and Avast.

Sorted now. Thanks very much.

Do you know why I didn't have the correct plist file initially?
