Constant Popup At Boot!
« on: January 08, 2021, 12:32:31 PM »
Is it really necessary to advise me that my VPN CyberGhost has connected me to a network each and every time I boot my PC?
Surely a check button that accepts a notice (this is not even a warning or security issue) should do away with this. Do Avast think I'll purchase their VPN just to get rid of the harassment?

You can adjust/disable it in the settings.

Thanks
I didn't realise you have to login to view the attachment images.
I have the free Avast and don't have any WLAN settings to adjust.

I take it that Avast have no intention of stopping these notices then and have uninstalled it.
That has solved the problem of useless and inconsiderate software and forum replies.
I'll now move to a professionally supported and working anti-virus.
