To be clear, when I say “program update”, it doesn’t really matter if you run the installer or you used the built-in program update. The point is, when new CLEAN install, it seems not to ask for reboot (at least, under some conditions). I’m still testing situations though.
Okay, I did a clean install, It didn’t ask for a reboot. I rebooted anyway, but the splash screen didn’t seem to appear at all. Is that normal?
By the way, I couldn’t register a new license. It keeps hanging after I fill the form and click the big green button. I had to submit a form on the site. Still waiting for the e-mail.
that’s wrong, a clean install of AIS always prompts to reboot, always, and it’s been like that since Avast 5 (and no reboot required after a “free” version install).
edit: upgrading AIS doesn’t always require a reboot, depending on what was upgraded.
