Hi All,

I have a small SSD for my laptop and avast is creating MASSIVE logs. 10% of my SSD.

Need a way to stop it.

Here is a screen shot

Have you already disabled debug logging?

3

Yes, under maintenance and log.

The box was never ticked. Is the the only way to uninstall Avast?

4

It is my understanding that if avast! is creating those UNP.xxxxx.mdmp something is not right with the program.

How did you install it ? Over V.8 or clean installation ?

5

What OS/service pack are you using?
What exact version of avast?

6

Pretty sure it is a clean install. Since the computer is new.

Windows 8, wait for 8.1

8.0.1497

I have auto update on.

Is this a windows 8 thing? Wife PC has windows 7 and the log files was much smaller

I wonder why there is a old version of avast installed if the computer is new…
I suggest you remove that version using the avast removal tool and do a real clean install of the latest version.
Choose the edition you want to have HERE

Is avast working or crashing on the machine that produces these dumps? :stuck_out_tongue:

That is interesting. I have the program on automatic update, but it is not doing update.

I haven’t seen the program crush. Unless it crushes but it doesn’t tell me. Going to up date the program and see what happens.

Edit: auto spell on the phone

no problem here at all
clean install on window xp x86.

my log folder is only 1.5 mb large. (no mini dumps).
