Thanks Jan, you’re late, already updated. 
It is Friday evening (weekend), so I guess Jan is sitting in a cybercafe en already had something to drink when he remembered he forgot to post this ;D
The Firewall toaster “banned” message, where it should be “allowed” for allowed applications, is still not fixed 
Greetz, Red.
Does this beta fix the bug that causes to disable shield behavior alone?

Reported on Mar 28 2017.
yup its again a new bug
Not new it is a very old bug…avast is lazy to fix small bugs… 
Thanks for the update 
I thought the rule was not to release new versions including betas just before a weekend ???
I assume that is just for stable releases.
Personally I think it should apply to both as we have found in the recent past, some howlers still make it through to the beta. Something that wasn’t broken in the stable release has been broken in the beta. So Avast need to be manning the pumps (a.k.a. the forums) to potentially catch issues.
