Unblock Programs & Websites That Were Blocked By Avast

Avast blocks all those programs and websites that it doesn’t recognize or that it thinks has potential to harm you. It can happen because of low occurrence within Avast community. Sometimes, it even blocks those programs and website which you think are completely safe. Mostly it blocks popular programs, games and services when they have launched a new version or update that is not listed in Avast Virus definition.

Fortunately, you can unblock these programs and website with proper guidance. If you have thorough knowledge about software applications and configuration then follow the instructions given here, otherwise, you can also take help from our customer care executives who are available at Avast Support Number UK. There are two different methods through which you can unblock a blocked website or program. But before unblocking please make sure that the site or program that you are going to unblock is absolutely safe otherwise you might land up in trouble.

Method 1: Add a Blocked Website or Program to the exclusion list

When you add any file, program or URL to an exclusion list then it is excluded from Avast scanning and shield protection, which ultimately prevent it from blocking. To exclude a program from Avast scanning please follow the given steps:
  • Open Avast user interface and go to its settings and then click General.
  • Tap on “Exclusion” tab and then add a specific program in the “File Path”.
  • The added program will be excluded from Avast scanning.

To exclude website or URL please follow the given instructions:
  • Open Avast user interface and go to its settings and then click General.
  • Tap on “Exclusion” tab and add a specific URL to “URLs” section.
  • Added website or URL will be excluded from Avast scanning.

You can also add an exclusion for specific Avast shield. Better take help for this from our experts whom you can contact at Avast Helpline Number UK.

Method 2: Temporarily Disable Avast Protection
If you want to run a specific program or open a particular website that is being blocked by Avast then you can temporarily turn off Avast protection. But you have to make a choice whether you want to disable only specific shield of Avast that is blocking your access or you want to turn off Avast completely. You can take assistance over this from Avast customer care executives.

But remember to turn Avast back on after you are done with your work or disable it for particular time duration because turning off Avast make you vulnerable to online attacks.
