The Software Updater displays a system rating, from 0% critical to 100% good which tells you right away how well - or not - your system software is up to date. The component scans programs such as Flash Player, Java, web browsers and media players as well as other popular programs that many Windows users have installed. In Avast! Premier, it even installs updates silently if possible. The updater works manually in the free version, while it runs automatic in all paid versions of Avast! 8. It works similar to SUMO and Slim Cleaner in this regard. This is a new component in all versions of Avast! 8 that scans installed software on the system to find out if updates are available.

The program makes available two profiles and a custom option. Make sure you select custom install in step 2 and uncheck the Yes, install Google Drive box to avoid this from happening.Ĭustom installation also ensures that you can select the components that you want to install on your PC. It is necessary to pay attention to the installation dialog, as it includes an offer to install Google Drive on the computer system by default. The new Avast! Free Antivirus 8 has been released a couple of minutes ago and is now available for download from the developer website or via automatic update.
