So you scheduled the boot-time scan, after installing the new version (and rebooting, when asked to do so), and it still didn't work?

Interesting. Other people are reporting the opposite - the last update fixed the problem...

What's in <avast>\data\log\aswBoot.log ?

Thanks

I don't understand. Can you rephrase? Do you already have the screenshot (the graphics file, e.g. jpg, gif etc)?

It needs to be jpg ot gif or png. BMP is not supported (it's not an Internet format). You need a program that can save as jpg, gif or png. Windows Paint can do this only if you have Windows XP.

So.... what's the problem, really?

The log line needreboot=false just means that the update did not need a reboot of the machine, that's all.

It's usually not necessary to check the logs unless you're experiencing some problems... The logs (especially the setup logs) can be confusing (at least for the users).


Thanks
