How to Stop Avast From Blocking Websites

Avast is a popular antivirus program. It safeguards users from threats, and enables them to surf the web safely. It also offers a broad range of other security options like blocking malicious downloads, unsafe downloads and spam mail. It is able to stop hackers from stealing files and stealing the device of a user. The company offers various subscription options based on the user’s preferences and needs. Avast could misinterpret websites or applications and block them. A pop-up message may appear to inform the user that “avast blocks websites” or something similar. In these situations, it is advisable to disable Avast protection temporarily. Here are a few simple methods to do this.

Method 1 Repair the Installation Program

In most instances, this problem occurs due to a corrupted installation file. In order to solve the issue the user should first run a complete system diagnostic. After the diagnostic has been completed then the user needs to go to the website of avast, and select the ‘Settings’ tab. The user then needs to select the “Exceptions” option. The user will then have to enter the URL of the website Avast is blocking. After they have done this, they need to click on ‘Add Exception’ and then save it.

During this procedure, the user must ensure that they have backups of all their data. This way, they will be able to recover all the important files when the issue is fixed. It is important to keep in mind that these methods are not as safe as disabling your antivirus completely. In case any of the methods mentioned above are not working the user should call Avast support immediately.
