Hello,

I’m install the free version of Avast, and need to disable any update service that there is via network.

Then only update the software via USB.

Does anyone know of a document which details on how to do these two items.

Thanks

What updates are you talking about ?
Why do you not want to have automatic updates ?

Is there a document showing how to install updates via USB.

Thanks
