Why am I not being alerted?

I have all my file shield settings to ask, why is it blocking automatically rather than alerting me?

What OS/SP ?
What exact version of avast ?

I guess this is the new hips module…

Yes, thats the new HIPS Module

And i cannot find a setting to change HIPS to ask.

Once again: Avast put something not entirely finished in, for stuff like this they should have settings to set to ask

Thanks, I suspected it At least they should insert some kind of description in the alert box. Why this action has been blocked and so on. Now is very confusing.

There might be an update for more options later

Win 7 Pro SP1
10.3.2223
IT IS DRIVING ME MAD >:(

It seems to be blocking only registry entries when I open certain apps like lightscreen portable

Maybe lightscreen is an unknown application for Avast so it blocks some of its actions. The only thing you can do now is disabling the hips in file system shield settings.

Set hips to monitor for malware like behaviour only
