Hello, fix of the issue with the repeated SafePrice plugin offer was just released. Once you have version 23.5.8195.786 the issue should be gone. PC restart is needed. We apologize for the inconvenience caused by this bug.

@jan.sbovoda I tried to update the version but it stays at 23.5.8195.785 maybe it still needs time to be available on the servers?
Thank you and good day!

Hi Nunzio77, this is different update channel, it was released as uupdate. Check for uupdates should be done every 4 hours or you can try to speed it up by restarting your PC (there is a check also after each PC restart).

Try emptying your browser's cache, deleting temporary files, cookies, etc... Then restart your PC.  It's no longer causing me any problems.

Hi Ghaindar, in case the issue still persists, could you please enable debug logs, induce the problem and then send us the support package. https://support.avast.com/en-us/article/Submit-support-file/#pc Please share then the support package ID. Thank you very much.

I was able to revert to 23.4, then I came back to this thread and read that Avast have released an update to fix this mess.
Shredded temp files, etc, updated, and at first shot got the update and... no more Chinese registry entries, nor the annoying redirecting to the SafePrice plugin page every time I started my browser... YAY!  8)

The Avast update fixed the issue with SafePrice addon. I deleted all of the Chinese characters in my registry, after creating a backup registry file, and I have not had any problems with my system. Avast acted quickly to resolve this issue.

Could you explain what you mean by "different update channel"? If I simply use the Update function in the UI under Settings -> General -> Update, will I be good to go?
