How To Use?

Using Avast Pro Antivirus is simple. After installation, launch the software and use the user-friendly interface. The main dashboard displays an overview of your system's security status, as well as options for running scans, customizing settings, and accessing additional features. You can configure automated scans and schedule updates according to your preferences. It also works seamlessly with your web browser, providing real-time protection during online activities. 

User Interface 

It has a clean and user-friendly interface, like the free version. The background color is slate grey with subtle green streaks. The interface has four tabs on the side for easy management of your protection settings. In terms of interface design, it is similar to Bitdefender, which is well-known for its antivirus interface. 

Of the four tabs, three are primarily used for navigation. When you click on one of these tabs, a menu appears with icons for various features presented as tiles. It is important to note that some features, such as the ransomware shield, are not available in Avast Pro, as indicated by an orange lock next to the appropriate icon. 

However, things can get a little confusing from here. Only a few features will display the lock icon, while others will not. For example, if you click on SecureLine VPN, you will be taken to a checkout page where you can pay for this specific feature.
