Slight problem opening bank mode after booting computer.
« on: December 13, 2020, 09:30:44 AM »
When I boot computer, Open Browser click link to bank site, first time logging into my bank (bank mode doesn't open.)
Close browser. Reopen browser click link for bank site Bank mode Opens.

After initial boot up no problems with bank mode.

This may help

Could be time for a clean install of the Secure Browser?
 
Download the installer from here, https://www.avast.com/en-us/secure-browser
Download the Secure Browser Removal tool from here, https://download.avastbrowser.com/avast_secure_browser_uninstall.exe
***  Save your Bookmarks via the Book Marks Manager if you have custom bookmarks so you can import them when you re-install.
Uninstall Secure Browser via Programs and Features - Reboot
Run the removal tool, reboot, run the installer import your favorites if you saved them.
A video to help with the installation: [url=https://youtu.be/r_VLA0HMLQM]https://youtu.be/r_VLA0HMLQM][url]https://youtu.be/r_VLA0HMLQM]https://youtu.be/r_VLA0HMLQM]https://youtu.be/r_VLA0HMLQM][url]https://youtu.be/r_VLA0HMLQM[/url]
Report back if that's solved the problem or not.
Avast has offered a seperate tool to totally remove the Secure Browser if the above instructions don't work.
You can find that tool here, https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=230288.msg1531315#msg1531315

 Thx Bob 3160

Hi dropdeadfred,
If you can provide name of your bank and country, it would be great for further investigation and fixing of the issue.
