Enjoy this beta!
We are looking forward to your feedback.

Also please be informed that we would appreciate if you would be so kind and try our Antivirus product based on so called “icarus” setup (installation and update engine) already used for other Avast products but now available also for AV. More information is here: https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=264883.0.
Please note that in order to get it, you need to uninstall the current one (automatic migration is not supported at the moment).

Hi, this is a bit confusing, do you maybe mean “Avast One installation can now be cancelled by pressing ESC”…? Cheers

The notification window is still in the way on the desktop. Described in more detail here

In the past it was possible to cancel the installation by ESC button - it killed the installation process. This is now disabled.

Yes, I can confirm that in some cases the notification is still not displayed correctly. Please wait for next beta build - there will be another fix included. Can you please let us know it it helps? Thank you.
