As you can see, I received a notice that the VPS database was not up to date.
When I tried doing an update, I got the message that it was alreadt up to date.
I tried a program update and it mentioned v. XXX 2218 but stopped with an error message that the server was unreachable.

I just went to test that and look what I got

I have the same update-??
I wish someone from Avast would explain what is going on. I have enough to deal with using Windows 10 and now an un announced AIS update?

[bob3160]

I still can’t download it. Still get the server error.

No problems here.
I have just updated to the 2228 build and rebooted

If you have previously used the beta stream then you will get the new beta build; the main hassle I have is that you have to constantly check your Program Update settings as they keep being changed to auto program update and I keep changing it back to ‘Ask when an update is available.’ At least this time it did ask, I’m just about to do the update.

So I would check your program update settings to ensure you don’t get an unannounced program update.

I understand that but I would like a download link so I can install it clean. Right now i have an upgrade on top of an upgrade and then another one. I also find it strange that No one on this for new about this. I normally visit here looking for upgrades , but NADA.

We now have yet another beta release 10.4.2229, https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=176033.0.

Nomally Avast populates all the ( Beta ) download servers first with the latest ( Beta ) version, before they publish the release notes.
So it is not unusual that an update is offered in the UI before it has been actually " released ".

I’ve manually downloaded v2229 from https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=176033.0
A manual installation took care of the problem.
