Hi everyone,
new beta version 19.1.2358 (build 19.1.4133) is released.
We would like to ask you for feedback to some changes we made. Please focus on these:
- Exceptions - let us know if they work in your environment
- New online installer - test it as much as you can. It contains logic to install 19.1 according to OS (x86 or x64) and also 18.8 on systems with XP/Vista
What’s new
- Online installer
- Global Exceptions only - we prefer to use just global exceptions that work for all shields and scans. So if you enter some file or folder it should be ignored for both shields and scans
- Redesigned global settings. There is a specific thread about new settings (report bugs, suggest improvements, discuss, hate, whatever
- https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=221665.0
What was fixed
- Dialog about requested restart is displayed after manual update
- Smart Scan - bad browser add-ons are detected on x64 systems
- Data Shredder works also on x64 systems
- Do Not Disturb mode does now starts for full-screen Windows Store Apps
- And some boring crashes
Known issues
- There is no update progress visible in UI
- Unidentified network toaster can be sometimes displayed
