A better way to Submitt Files to Avast

Instead of having to put a file in quarantine and submitting from there, there should be a button on the avast menu screen that says ‘‘Submitt Files to Avast’’. This would make it easier to send files to the avast team.

I’m not entirely sure what it is that you want to submit, an undetected malware or a possible FP ?
The submission process has been greatly improved from what it was previously. What menu are you talking about ?

The alert process allows for the submission of detected files at the time of detection.

You could also send it in an email to virus(at)avast(dot)com
include either “possible malware” or “possible false positive” in the subject line

zip the file in a password protected archive and attach it, informing the recipient of the password in the email body
also include any other info related to the file (reasons etc. )

This process is running in my memory and i think it could be suscpicious. It restarts itself everytime you close it. Can the Alwil guys plix check it out
