AvastUI.exe

Avast Premium Security loading and working with additional GPU process which consumes a lot, I mean a lot of battery and forcing fan work. Any ideas how to change it, exclude from GPU enviroment?

What provider/developer says?

Hi @ChicoMalo474 , Iā€™m sorry to hear about this experience.

Could you please check whether the issue persists with the latest version, 26.10? To update Avast, go to Menu ā†’ Settings ā†’ Update and click the second CHECK FOR UPDATES button. Once the update is complete, please restart your computer and check whether the issue persists.

If it does, could you please check whether disabling Deepfake Guard makes any difference? To disable it, open Avast Premium Security and go to Scam Guardian Pro ā†’ Deepfake Guard, then click the green switch at the top of the window.

Please let us know if this changes the behavior.
