Avast credential alert
« on: June 25, 2021, 08:48:32 AM »
Hi,

I received the following alert that AvastUI was trying to access my credentials. Should I allow it?

Hi,

Can you upload that AvastUI.exe file to virustotal.com and provide us with the results link?
Can you also provide us with a support file ID, please?
To generate the support file, please see this link.

Hi r@vast,

Virustotal does not seem to display it as malicious : https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/10d94d59b251c40900d24261b64b0b6119d9fe95e2c2ddcf647b8c3e0182c73d/detection

The above AvastUI.exe file I obtained from the default Avast folder. I unfortunately didnt check if it had another destination.

I have generated a security report - support file ID: 45RQK

Thanks
