these do not work
I’ve reported the bug to Avast.
What you can do is remove the Secureline component and replace it
with the freestanding product. https://www.avast.com/en-us/secureline-vpn#pc
Eventually the product will only be available via the freestanding module.
This bug will be fixed in the next version update. The recommendation is still to remove the
component from within Avast and install the freestanding version.
