updater scan not working?

hey so i was doing a checkup on my avast and it said that my updates were critical so i went and updated something closed avast and reopened it but it was still saying that the program needed to be updated i tried to update it again and it still did not work i also tried updating some other programs but again it still did not work so now the programs i know are updated still say the need updating and answers ( i am new to this forum)

i am also using the free avast version

have you restarted computer ?

have you tried avast repair?

Ad/Remove programs > avast > uninstall > repair option… wait a minute and reboot

any change?

i restarted the computer but nothing changed what is the avast fixer thingy you said second

you repair avast install if something is wrong With it…

ok i did the repair thing and restarted the computer but i am still getting the same problem.

um… are you still there!!! :-\

Same problem here also.I have programs that need updating according to Avast.I click “update” and nothing happens.
