Avast review windows for free

The new interface from Avast is nicely designed, with clear delineation between its different elements and simple blue icons (with orange accents from the company logo) to identify the suite’s features. On the homepage, you can perform a scan, turn on the VPN and also access shortcuts to a number of not-so-utilized tools for optimizing your system. The fact that the most important features are hidden away in the “Explore tab” is quite frustrating.

The installation process is simple and you’re not pushed into opting for the free version. However, the full scan may reveal “advanced issues” that can only be resolved by paying for premium security. This is a bit shady. Especially when you click on the Resolve button and are directed to a page that asks you antivirus-software.org to sign up for Avast Premium security. Avast sells the user’s data, too according to an Which? article published in 2020. magazine.
