Avast Premium Security & Quicken for Windows

[Kalman]

Today Avast started detecting issues when I start Quicken for Windows.
Detects Quicken as a threat when it accesses Windows file.
"Threat secured" We've secured rundll32.exe [14152] because it was infected with Win32-Malware-gen".
Then when Quicken try's again to open "Run time Error"

Has a ticket been been created for this? Followed you from Quicken forum.

Brand new install coming from a WIndows 10 VM, it had malwarebytes. Did new laptop install with Avast and as soon as a NEW QUicken for Windows was installed and launched, got the same error. DIsabiling Avast and relaunching did allow the program to load. I did get a popup for firewall to allow it to internet.

No, Avast does a great job monitoring this forum

Have you submitted a suspected False Positive Form to Avast using this: https://www.avast.com/false-positive-file-form.php

You can refer the dev's to this forum thread.

Just sent the information to avast as a false positive.
I'm looking at Quicken to fix this bug

[Kalman]

The threat is being detected by Avast Anti-exploit shield.
If this is turned off then the error stops when starting Quicken for Windows

I too am having this problem with Quicken/Avast and I'm running Windows 7.

Same issue. It's definitely Avast, if I uninstall/reinstall Quicken I get the same issue but if I disable the Avast shields there are no problems. When the shields are back on it causes the errors again.
I've updated Avast and the definitions and the issue still persists. Quicken is adamant that this is Avast's problem and will not assist if you call them

Avast Support:
Thank you for your quick resolution to this issue.
Updated definitions and program and all is well again..

[Kalman]

Avast:
Looks like you may have rolled back the fix when the new program version was released today.
THE ISSUE IS NOT RESOLVED!

I've resubmitted a trouble ticket to avast again for false Positive

I had this problem on 2 machines.  Avast One on W11 & Avast Free on W10.  Just ran the latest Avast program update on both machines & it resolved for me. 
22.9.6034  22.9.7554.734

[Kalman]

It temporary, believe me!

[pcnews]

You are correct.   
Works fine on first reboot but problem comes back at some point.  Very strange.

I resubmitted the issues yesterday afternoon.
This came in today at 7:20 am est from Support
