We would appreciate your patience until we get the response from our developers team. Please be informed that this Community forum basically deals with 'home' version of AVG products.

Furthermore the "Business products" area has now been removed from the 'Community topics' list the top LHS of this page. Finally please be informed that the support for "Business products" is not now available within this Community. BUT there is nothing I can find on the internet to back this up. I would just like to add to this "AVG please extend the Virus Definitions to allow us to update in a orderly fashion". Note: The virus definition should get updated in every hours, if automatic updates is enabled.

If not, we need log files to analyze the situation. Thomas, I have sent you an email, please follow the email instruction to help us with the log files. This information will help us to analyze the situation and provide you with a solution. Avinash Avast Thomas, we are not sure how AVG has received virus definitions until Aug 14th but the support has ended for and earlier versions since Dec We request you to uninstall version and install latest version of AVG free to receive further assistance.

Avinash Avast Yes, Thomas. We are already collecting diagnostic logs from users with AVG and later versions to analyze the root cause of this behavior. But we can not promise anything about AVG version since it has reached end of life. Bruce Campbell The company itself is trying to force us to update to U.

They are denying updated definitions to users of v16 [me] or v17 or older, which is no way to run a company. Bruce Campbell In addendum, this frustration with the so-called gurus being ignorant of the company forcing yet another User Interface change, one that is less usefull with each generation. I use MalwareBytes as a backup, but now considering using it full time as they don't give me this kind of grief I'm considering switching to it full time, along with Spybot's expanded set of uses.

Avinash Avast Bruce, we are sorry to hear about that. Please note that we are not denying you the latest definition because you are using version. So we always recommend you to use the latest version of AVG. Scott Frederick For my situation, the computer I am using AVG with is offiline not connected to the internet for security reasons. As others have stated, the date of the definition file on that site is 14 August If that site is not going to be maintained from now on, then I will be forced to change to another antivirus provider.

I'm sure there are many other users that are in my situation that need to be able to manually update their computers. I would ask that AVG strongly consider continuing to update the download-update site. Thank you. May I know the AVG protection version installed on your computer? I am sorry for the confusion. It is customers like you that are helping to make AVG a household name. Thank you for choosing an AVG solution for your computer. You need to sign in to do that. Need an account?

Sign Up. Have an account? Certainly, I'm not the only one complaining about this. Where are the release notes for AVG updates? Balasubramanian S Avast Ed, we actually referred to this 'Ask when update is available' option. If it is enabled, then the exclamation would appear on AVG system tray icon and if you access the program then, you would see the option to perform the update.

Broken, still waiting for almost two weeks to know why. Balasubramanian S Avast Ed, our senior team will investigate and answer to your query. We will also check regarding release notes for AVG updates and update it as soon as possible. Your patience is much appreciated. Ed Siff I have changed Virus def. In the other thread - which I tried to put an end to - you said: 1. I have it set to Ask when update available, and I'm not being notified.

You also said: 2. As I mentioned above, at least once. If you click on the icon "See What's New," and it will provide the detailed updates to the version of software installed. Ed Siff. Priyanga Sekar Sitel Thank you for the screenshot, Ed. I apologize for the delayed response. Let us make a attempt to clarify your concerns above. In some exceptional cases, when you configure the settings to 'Automatic', the updates will get installed automatically and the program will notify you to restart or you see the disabled message.

A restart is required to save the changes major update or latest patches made. When a program is outdated, it doesn't impact the protection of your device. It is just the version of the program needs to get updated and this could be the reason we haven't notified you before. The option 'See what is new' could appear if we release new updates to the program's database and you updated the same.

Hope this clarifies the situation. If we can be of more help, please let us know. I realize the importance of automatic def. Priyanga Sekar Sitel Thank you for your understanding, Ed. We are available round the clock. You need to sign in to do that.
