Well, that Avast Free 20.5.2415 if the avast screen is not open, it does not show any popup if a virus is detected (tested with eicar)
If afterwards you try to open the interface, a dll appears (the failure dll is this: api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll) indicating that it is damaged or invalid for the computer .
I include the image where the failure is seen.
If, on the other hand, the Avast interface is open, the popups work perfectly.
It is a pain having to have the interface open because if it does not fail.
If that doesn't have the same arrangement, I go back to the previous version.
But if I reboot it works fine again. Repairing does nothing.
I have windows 7 64bit with Visual C ++ 2005 Redistributable.
I know that the error refers to a Visual C ++ assembly but I do not have system updates turned on, and the Avast Free 20.3 version did not happen that, it worked fine.
What happens you need a more updated version of Visual C ++ or something, someone else happens in Windows 7
The only problem if I have Avast Free 20.3 is that Windows 7 64 bits does not give closed or shutdown if there are open network connections.
Does it happen to someone too?
