Why Does Avast want to make changes in my backup files?
« on: October 15, 2021, 11:07:22 PM »
I use Acronis to back up some of my files on a daily basis onto my HD. (I also do backups on a weekly and monthly basis onto an external HD.)

When I run an Avast scan it asks me if I want to allow is to make changes to the daily backup Acronis files.  This happens only on one of my 6 computers that use the same software.

Why is it doing that?
