I’m using the Free version maybe there’s a difference in your paid version ???

Only difference would be the modules used, appearance should be the same.

Hi bob,

I had previously installed beta av only (which I think is for free users) and it still showed new smart scan but now I have installed current release over beta and dont see the new smart screen UI anymore.

Critical bug:
If you scan infected file or folder which contain infected file in explorer (right click), it opens Avast main window instead test results, that means no detection, everything seems ok, but is not.
Only in test history i can see detected file. Now fixed

Other bugs:

• Version 19.2 not notify me about program update if i have set notify.
• Unistallation not remove Overseer task from task manager, also not remove Overseer.exe from system. (This problem persist since Overseer was added)
• On my one of two PC’s after installation (offline installer), GUI was unreadable, there was program code instead real words. (Fixed after PC restart)

Suggestion:

• Add button “Clear test history” directly to test history tab. Now is accessible only trough old settings.

My Smartscan looks normal to me, at least looks like it did in 19.2

Hi Patrick2,

yes but it changed in 19.3 beta but does not reflect on 19.3 final release. That is the issue.

Please see screenshot of Bob which I am pasting below.

Or to that matter what Asyn posted earlier. Image below

Hi,

Thanks for the new release. Installed over the beta and rebooted. So far so good. I am on Windows 10 insider release 18353 64bit.

On smartscan, I noticed there is no new interface where we see the files being scanned. I am sure it was in the beta of the same version. Am I missing something?

The new flow is now turned on in beta, on production we will first start in selected countries and measure the impact first…

Ah! Thanks MartinZ for the heads up. Makes sense. Now I will shutup and hope to see it soon in India.

Well, that explains it. Thanks Martin.

What we FIXED:

• When installing Avast Ultimate, all products in the bundle will be installed in one go

• Fixed our boot-time scan

• Made sure our UI loads correctly (“white UI” problem)

• Fixed a bug for our users in Russia where Passive Mode sometimes turned on for no reason

forgot to mention the fix on the BSOD messages :

UNEXPECTED_KERNEL_MODE_TRAP (aswbidsdriver.sys)

reported Here or Here
It seems to be solved now, my 2 devices work again using VPN.

Just updated to the new version, and now the data shredder does not work correctly. It allows me to select the desired files, but once selected, it just returns to the home screen without completing the task. I’ve rebooted twice since updating with no luck.

Just logged in to report the same. Tried ‘Repair’, uninstall/reinstall component, complete clean/reinstall & all the requisite reboots… no joy.

For the first time i actually had to do a clean install of Avast. Works fine after that though.

PLEASE HELP

After installing newest update:

Using avast free edition on W7 HP SP1. avast will NOT LOAD AT ALL. Attached is what comes up when I try to click on avast, which in the tray has a red ‘x’, “You are not protected.” I tried rebooting a few times, and I was able once to repair (no help). Now however when I try to uninstall I get a message that I have to wait, attached that little message too.

Reboot your system and try a clean install.

I was able to uninstall and reinstall when spamming the button in installed programs immediately on reboot. Seems fine so far. Thanks.

Exactly that happened to me. A clean install took no more than 3 mins.
