Today I did a routine checkup to see if all my installed programs where up to date by using patchmypc , sumo and ruckzuck.exe. every update went fine , except the one for openoffice. Avast ransomware shield poped up and asked if I wanted to trust the installation of the program ,clicked on yes , but the installation fails everytime. ( have this shield on smart mode ) even uninstalling with revo gives me troubles and the installation package give error warnings and roles back to previous state , so I must perform a force uninstallation with revo. after this process openoffice will not install , also tried libreoffice : same result! wps office on the other hand , will install with succes!
is this a bug in Avast , or are openoffice and libreoffice blacklisted in any kind of way by Avast??
I currently use Avast free , lastest stable build ( 21.8.2487 (versie 21.8.6586.696) , no other realtime protective security is installed. I am on win 10 pro x64 , build 2H1 19043.1266. I did use defender before , but disabled that using defender control.
rebooted my pc and downloaded a fresh installer package from the openoffice site , this time the installation finished succesfully…thanks anyway , for your time and help!
