Avast settings

Can be exported settings?
If you can, where?
I want to save the settings in the event that we need them.
Is it possible to?

same question here :smiley:

Can someone answer us? :cry:

Don’t know of any way and haven’t seen anyone suggest a way. Maybe someone from Alwil can help after the weekend. Or a request for the next version? Settings are pretty straightforward, though, and take me typically 5-10 minutes or so to reestablish when I do a remove/reinstall. And the defaults work pretty well anyway.

I also answered in the other topic you have.

That there is no specific option to save/export settings.

In 4.8 all that was advised was to save the avast4.ini, now there are a whole slew of .ini files for the different shields, so saving this different ini files might be a work around.

Personally I don’t see the need as most people use avast on the default settings or only a very few tweaks, that really wouldn’t be an hassle to set up again if you needed to. I have never felt the need for this in almost 6 years of using avast.

Is this a problem to enable the next version? :slight_smile:
I really need

me too :-\

as said, there’s unfortunately no direct way to backup all settings, so no restore function either. This can be (unofficially, ie not supported) done by saving *.ini files found in the alwill folder (program data or all users), at your own risk.

ps: no need to write in bold characters to ask :wink:

Can it in the next version to be inserted?

Only if you disable the avast self-defence module first.
