Avast Blocking My External Hard Drive
My Avast demanded to be updated yesterday, so I did. Now when I plug my external hard drive in (a little Maxell portable) nothing comes up and I can't back things up. I assume these two events are connected as there was no trouble till today.
Is there any way to tell Avast to permit it? Or of restoring the earlier Avast? (Though I assume the latter would be risky.)
(Please don't advise installing MSE instead as I had the same trouble with it in the past; that's why I installed Avast in the first place.)

I use up-to-date Avast on W8.1 and don't have this problem. If you right-click the Avast icon in the task tray you'll find the 'Avast Shield Controls' where you can disable it for a period - see if the drive is recognised when Avast is disabled. I suspect it won't make a difference.

Hi uni. It was unearthed!! I have coped with walking with a rollator, I have coped with the pain, etc, but I am simply not coping with not having a useable right arm and shoulder and not being able to even manage clothing without help. Good job himself is fit and able to be chauffeur, housemaid, personal ladies maid, gardener, sous chef, etc,etc. But I so miss my independence grrrrrrrrrrrr.
Lottie I am so sorry to hear about your disabilities....enough to make a saint swear. We are sat here in state waiting for the tree men to arrive to sort my garden...the weather is weird. Here in the south we are not forecast to get hit but its very windy and humid here and the light is yellow.....looks very stormy
Yes ,really weird weather today.It was stuffy warm and very windy here with an oily sky all day and then it had a sort of yellowish tinge towards dusk.Nowhere near as bad as they had it elsewhere though.Awful there in Ireland and the west of the country.
Went and had my hair cut and highlighted.I've got a great niece getting married in three weeks and I can't turn up looking like an ancient aunt.
Hope you're all ok . Night all.

dent man fixed my bumper and told me not to wash or polish it for 3 days. When I had finished laughing I told him that God washes my car and once a year it gets valeted when its serviced. I did a bit of titivating in the garden yesterday and today I have got a stiff knee which will teach me to be all industrious. Wet and grey today and high winds forecast for saturday.
Brian edged past us rain wise but it's mighty windy out there.Lovely and sunny though.Ideal wishy washy on the whirly day.
Nothing exciting to report apart from the fact that our cinema in the High St has opened.I hope it's a success.Discounts for old biddies so I might give it a whirl if there's something I really want to see.
Hope you're all jogging along .

Hope there's no civil war here.
