Cheers :wink:

Thanks,
so I have the answer :

Windows fully compatible PC with Intel Pentium 4 / AMD Athlon 64 processor or above (must support SSE2 instructions) 256 MB RAM or above 2 GB free space on the hard disk
I must keep Avast 2015 for this machine, until when ? ::)
25

You’re welcome.

26

Thanks for the update :slight_smile:

updated from last release and from UI. Can’t start Firewall. It just says: Can’t be started. Also it reseted all my settings…
Already tried to reinstall avast but no change.

28

Repair Avast:

  1. Control Panel → Add/Remove programs → Avast
  2. Click on ‘Repair’.
  3. Follow instructions.
  4. Reboot.

Also what are “Burger events”?

Installed the new version (file and web shields only) onto 32 bit XP and Windows 7 PC’s.
Declined Chrome. Both installs were good (so far). No reboot requested, the product just started
working. One of the PC’s are just on the edge of the hardware requirement, it’s a Pentium 4
with SSE but not SSE2. Haven’t seen any crash so far.

I installed the latest build AVAST 2016 R1 SP1 (2016.11.1.2245)

But it still says Beta in the UI.

Is that a bug or something?

33

Not if you did run a beta before.

34

If you took part in a previous beta session, you are on the beta stream, should another beta session be started then you would get that beta version.

To come off the beta stream you effectively have to do a reinstall of the non-beta release.

35

Ok so I am actually running the “Final” build however it says Beta because I am a beta tester. Kind of like how I am a Windows Insider too :slight_smile:

Got it Thanks guys

36

Where do I find the option to delete user created scans? I still can’t seem to find the option. Not the best GUI design if person like me can’t find it…

37

You need to go into the the Scan for viruses, when you select your custom scan from the dropdown list - it will now show Delete custom scan name. The Test bit in the image is my Text/comment for this test.

38

Who install avast by online installator? Did you have a SZB?

39

Updating Premier on xpSP4 via GUI
Not anticipating any issues. :slight_smile:

I have never used an on-line installer for several reasons. Mainly security if you had another AV installed (possible conflict) or had no AV installed (lacking protection) and finally I don’t believe you have the same control over what is installed. e.g. I don’t know if it allows a custom install.
