Ver 5 : Show detailed info on performed action?

Avast Free Antivirus / Premium Security
1

I have just upgraded from 4.7 to 5.

I’m looking to turn on the “Show detailed info on performed action” for Mail but I’m not finding it.

In 4.7 this would show the subject and if I remember right the from in a small tooltip down near the avast icon. It was a quick way to see an incoming message and decide if it was important or not, and I really want it back.

I’m hoping that the setting is just moved as there is no Internet Mail module anymore.

In 4.7 it was in the settings under:

Internet Mail

  • Advanced
    — Show detailed info on performed action.
    — If this box is checked, information about the files currently being tested will be displayed in the bottom right corner of the screen.

Thanks for any information

It isn’t in the new UI or Settings.

You can either view the real-time shields which shows activity and last scanned file (but not in the same way as 4.8) and also look at the Statistics function in the Summary section of the UI.

Well that blows chunks … :-[

I’m honestly going to consider going back to version 4.8.

Your choice, but there is no way I would go back to 4.8 and lose the better protection and other functionality of 5.0 for that option.
