NEW Avast Version 21.2 (March 2021)
« on: Today at 10:56:56 AM »
Hi, all. Please welcome the newest version of Avast AV: 21.2 (21.2.2455)

Major public announcements
Introducing Hack Alerts — From now on, we’ll warn you if any passwords linked to your email address were compromised in a hack or a leak. (Just sign in to Avast Account within antivirus)
New performance report tool — If you encounter any performance issues on your PC and you suspect we're the culprit, you can now send us a report so we can investigate the issue (Just go to Settings > Troubleshooting > Record a performance problem)
Bug-fix and improvement highlights for hardcore fans:
AV DNS finally no longer conflicts with our VPN solution
Fixed product toasters that stole window’s focus
Arranged for the proper order of dialogs in various alert-dialog flows (for reporting false positives, when the main UI is open, etc.)
Fixed an issue where Passwords Protection (a Premium feature) was turned off for some users
Fixed some rare cases where user settings weren’t stored properly during product updates
Fixed rare problems with WebShield and HTTP/2 HPACK compression

How to install:

1. Update from your existing Avast version via Settings -> Update -> Update program

2. Or you can download and install files:

NEW Avast Version 21.4 (May 2021)
« on: Today at 02:22:51 PM »
Hi, all. Please welcome the newest version of Avast AV: 21.4 (21.3.2464)

Major public announcements
Improved Wi-Fi Inspector — We now scan for even more types of threats, and our improved results screen allows you to better understand what we’ve found thanks to clearer explanations, better organization, and improved tips for resolving detected problems
No more popups in streams — Good news, Windows 10 users! Our antivirus popups will no longer appear in your screen recordings and streams
Enhanced exceptions — Exceptions for scans and shields are now easier to add, customize, and maintain
More installation options — You now have more installation options when activating subscriptions that contain multiple apps

Other notable improvements and new functionalities:
Family Sharing — Premium Security (Multi-device) users can now share their subscriptions with their family members. Subscriptions can be shared across Windows and Android devices (Mac and iOS to come later)
We now recognize available (but not activated) products — We’ll no longer show offers for apps that users bought but haven’t yet installed
We’ve added Detection IDs to Behavior Shield dialogs — Other shields have already had this, but now Behavior Shield also gets a unique ID so our Support and Thread Labs teams can better identify reported threats from screenshots that customers send us
Added Sandbox and backend analysis parallelization to CyberCapture to minimize interruptions to our users while they interact with suspicious apps
We’re now applying formatting (time, calendar, etc.) of Windows regional settings in our UI

Bug fixes for:
Web content opened in the app-cart instead of browser
Rescue Disks that booted in Windows Preinstall Environment triggered a restart [Win7]
Sensitive Data Shield was not active after leaving Passive Mode through Settings
The last file from the multi-selection was omitted
Manually invoked Passive Mode did not require restart, caused some components (like CyberCapture) to misbehave
Web Shield samples were not detected after the URL was removed from the exceptions
...and many others

As usual a big thanks goes to the team for yet another successful release!
