It happened again. Any news regarding a possible fix?

And again. Has a cause been found and fixed?

Did you update to 26.5? 26.5 beta release notes indicates some fixes about UI.

I hadn’t. Just did. Let’s see if it makes a difference.

It just happened again with the latest build, so it isn’t fixed.

@prokopes Any indication if this will be fixed in the near future?

True, same happened to me.

Avast Free 26.6.11050g (build 26.6.11050.734) and it just happened again.

@prokopes Is there anything happening to address this? You did not respond last time I asked.

He keeps asking for logs but most don’t want to do that.

He already has logs from NON. No update whatsoever since even after tagging and asking.

The more logs the better, if this was bugging me every two weeks I would have sent the logs.

And again. @prokopes can you please give an update?

Yes same again here. Again saying no smart scan in past 14 days.

In my case there is no mention of smart scan at all. But still it opens every 14 days.

And again.

I have to say: I’ve mentioned @prokopes several times, and there has been no response. So we are ignored. Not cool.

If the report by NON wasn’t enough, Avast could at least just say so.

Hi @Rundvleeskroket , sorry for the lack of updates from my side. I’m still keeping an eye on this topic, but unfortunately I don’t have any update I can share at the moment.

The issue hasn’t been forgotten. I’ve asked my colleagues to prioritize a solution, and I’ll post here as soon as there’s anything new to report.

Thanks for your patience.
