The new Smart-Scan has a few design bugs…

Thanks, installed via beta channel.
Can confirm Smart Scan bug with the UI direction> “Show Results” at the end of the process after ‘Done’ is clicked on, begins to Scan again not showing any Results.

Don’t mind the UI re-design and visual of files scanning (Smart Scan) at all…kind of like it.

What of the https scanner of Firefox 65.0 was fixed at the end in this beta version (19.3.2365), or is still not fixed and still does not scan https in firefox 65.0.

Especially that it works on the Free that is what I use.

Hi gatocan2066,

https scanning for Firefox should be enabled again in this beta.
