Hi Petr,
I was under the impression that this option also suppressed other Windows & app notifications, because when I enabled this option, Outlook stopped displaying new mail notifications. I tried again just now and tested with some new emails, but this time I did get new mail notifications with the Avast option enabled. So, I guess it was just a coincidence.
But, even though this suppresses the popup windows, it does nothing for the Avast spam emails I'm also receiving...
All this aside, though, why are we even talking alternative methods & tricks to get rid of this?? Why don't you, Avast, just stop doing it in the first place!? It's not like I'm the only one complaining about / annoyed by this.
A paying customer shouldn't have to jump through hoops to stop their supplier from sending / showing them unwanted messages. How anyone at Avast can think this email & popup spamming is a good thing is totally beyond me...
After many years of using Avast, I am at a 50/50 split decision at the moment on dropping it altogether, in favor of an AV application that doesn't annoy me...
I really am not a happy customer atm.
I'll have to think about this.
In the meantime, you may consider my initial inquiry answered.
