Re: Avast Bank mode does not run after last update

Hi ! Bank mode stopped working by the 29th November update, version 22.12.6044 (version 22.12.7758.769)
The bank mode icon comes briefly in background but disappears after several seconds. I tried all ways suggested to start the bank mode but it never works. I desinstalled and reinstalled the browser without any change in the behaviour.
Any suggestion ?

I'm on the same Avast version as you but my experience is quite different.
I'm not having any problems opening the Secure Browser Banking Mode via the Avast tray icon
or, via the Secure Browser. I'm running Windows 11

Perhaps you should try a manual program update and see if you also get version 22.12.6044 (version 22.12.7758.769) and then see if the issue is present.

As I don't use, or have ASB installed, there no point my trying to replicate this.

It works for me the bank mode opens with version 22.12.6044 (version 22.12.7758.769).

Problem is still there. I'm running Windows 10 and Avast Secure Browser is Version 108.0.19667.125

PS1 : the Bank Mode menu entry is not present in the three dots menu.
PS2 : devtool console gives an error
Unchecked runtime.lastError: Specified native messaging host not found.

Hello,

have you tried to manually update Avast AV to the latest version and then restart your PC?

Thank you

I don't notice any change in banking mode, it still opens a Google Chrome window instead of the ASB window.

Same here, when I try to open ASB, I see all my Chrome bookmarks, passwords,... imported into ASB! (not my choice since I tried to keep them separated)
And when I open the Bank Mode, it just opens with new Chrome tab.
That's quite annoying and I feel more and more unsecure.

ASB version 108.0.19667.125 (repaired and reinstalled several times, last one on 29/12/2022)
Avast Antivirus version 22.12.6044 (version 22.12.7758.769) updated on 19/12/2022
