Hello to everyone.
Since about 2 weeks my Avast don’t update automatically so I must update it manually.
Why? Can I resolve this problem?
Hope you’ll help me.
Andrea
Please, post the last 200-250 lines of avast log: C:\Program Files\Alwil Software\Avast4\DATA\log\Setup.log
Also try setting the avast proxy setting to ‘None’ and not the ‘Automatic’.

Hai MagicAndry ,
Try to reinstall avast. If this way doesnt give you any effect than try to manual update 1st while waiting for help.
Maybe server maintenance, maybe nothing wrong and nothing done.
Not that sure, but what avast logs (warnings) says about automatic updates?
At least for now it works.
Thank you to everyone who answered me, it was kind of you all 
You’re welcome. Feel free to come back any time you need help or just to change experiences 8)
