Avast review windows for free

The new interface for Avast is well laid-out, with clear demarcation between its different elements and simple blue icons (with orange accents derived from the logo of the company) to highlight the suite’s features. The homepage lets you run a scan and turn on the VPN as well as shortcuts to a couple of not-very-useful system optimisation tools are also available. However, the fact that most of the other features offered by www.antivirus-software.org/windows-defender-review Avast are hidden in the “Explore” tab can be a little frustrating.

Installation is simple, and you’re not obliged to select the free version. However, a thorough scan will identify “advanced problems” that require premium security to address. This is a bit sneaky. Especially when you click the Resolve button and are directed to a page that asks you to sign to sign up for Avast Premium security. Avast also sells user data that was exposed in a story published in 2020 by Which? magazine.
