winring0x64 blocked every other day
« on: September 10, 2023, 11:03:26 PM »
Is this normal for avast to tell me more than once that it has blocked winring0x64?

I was clicking on my wallpaper practicing and lost control of the computer after I opened cube 2. It wouldn't let me click on anything but I could move the mouse. But after I did ctrl alt del I could click to restart the computer. After I restarted the computer avast told me it had to block winring0x64.

Is this topic the same as it relates to a vulnerable driver  ?
- "Avast blocked a vulnerable driver" https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=324304.0
- and - https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=322571.0

I don't know how you would go about updating this driver, but that would be the way to go.

I tried searching but after clicking on the search result it didn't go to a post. It sends me to https://forum.avast.com/index.php?board=2.0 instead of the post I clicked on.

edit: i see now i clicked on the wrong link

Yes, those links in my post should take you directly to the topics, rather than (having to search, I did that for you) rather than a board.

Were they related ?
