Hello, I just updated Avast Free Antivirus and it is currently:
Program version 24.7.6124 (build 24.7.9311.856). I'm using Windows 11 Home.
I noticed that there's a new text file in the report folder, named SafeBrowser.txt, which only appeared after the update
I only have File Shield, Behavior Shield, Web Shield, Mail Shield, and Ransomware Shield installed. No browser extension or secure browser.
Inside the text file, it states "Avast Real-time Shield Scan Report This file is generated automatically" along with the usual started on and shield stopped timestamps.
Any idea what this is? There's no mention of it in the notes for the latest release.
Also, the digital certificate signer for the AvastUI.exe process seems to have changed to "Sectigo Public Time Stamping Signer R35".
Cheers
