Avira Updates requiring reboots

[sciwizam]

Last couple of updates from Avira are asking for reboots after the updates. This behavior started a couple weeks ago, I want to know is this just me or did Avira change any update policy?

My virtual machine install of it has not required any restart, you using the latest version 9?

 

[sciwizam]

Yup, 9.0.0.387

Try completely uninstalling it via add/remove programs and reinstalling it.

Also, are you blocking the pop-up?

Thanks guys, due to this thread I found out there was a new version available and updated!!

Same thing happening to me.

I've only had to reboot due to major version updates(less than 5 times in the last few years), but otherwise, no.
