It took 9 minutes for the system to boot.
The system seems very sluggish since the update. Google Chrome Browser crashes and is unusable *
I’m sure this accounts for the slow start and sluggish initial reboot:
If Avast no longer uses the System Restore Point for their virtual Technology,
Why has it wiped out all of my restore points ???
(Seems like someone rushed this beta version ??? )
I didn’t have this problem till I installed this beta. So it can’t be a previous bug on my system. It has to be the latest beta that’s causing it on my system.
systray redesign unfortunately still not ready for this release, but will be done in V2016. Similar to the Remote control with password, but to be honest this functionality isn’t used as we would expect.
It probably would be if it was functioning properly. Since it now requires entering a password on a system you don’t have access to, it’s impossible to use.
Yes it will do the feature better definitely, but unfortunately there wasn’t enough users even before we removed it. So the password won’t save it, just slightly improve it ;-(
Is this an indication that Avast plans on removing this feature ??? It’s especially useful on the business side.
Controlling computers in other offices without actually needing someone in that office is a great addition to keeping thing updated etc.
I’ve used remote assistance feature in Household here since I manage all Household systems, entering the password on upstairs system, then going back to main system is major inconvenience at times, despite I don’t use it all that often, have occasionally though. Otherwise Avast works great on all the systems that it’s installed on, even slow as can be 10 year old laptop, (2005 hardware, Intel Celeron M, Radeon 200M graphics, 1.5gb of ram, 60gb hard drive lol)
Now when Windows 10 Upgrade day comes on July 29th? Does Avast Developers recommend users uninstall prior to upgrading to 10, Avast, then reinstalling once all upgraded and updated and such? (updating two systems, so this just came to mind while I was typing this beta feedback)
If you’re doing an upgrade from Windows 7 or 8.1, and are using the latest version of Avast, you don’t need to uninstall Avast prior to the upgrade to Windows 10.
(I will be pausing the Shields in Avast during the upgrade process.)
Excellent, just wanted to make sure is all, and do plan on pausing the shield myself as well. Yes two machines updating are Windows 7 Sp1 machine and 8.1 Pro 64bit machine…
When I run a smart scan I get a warning that my PC’s performance need attention. I do not have the Cleaner installed. This just started with the update I received today.
