Thanks for the beta as always. I must however report that Avast has recently began a sharp downfall in terms of its accessibility with screen readers, especially with NVDA. One can no longer navigate the screens with arrow keys, but only with the tab key, which means we can no longer read any information properly by using a screen reader. Oddly enough this only seems to impact NVDA, with Jaws your programs still perform quite well, aside from a few issues here and there. I truly hope this can be resolved on your end since your programs used to be very accessible. I will be happy to test any new changes made and will keep an eye on the beta threads.
Best regards
