io.kent Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 It seems that German security firm Avira 'did not have time' to test and update their security solutions providing them with support for the new operating system Microsoft Windows 8. Not only that, but the upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 8 with Avira installed solutions will result in a system hang and the dreaded "blue screen of death" popular on Windows systems. "Windows 8 introduces significant changes to the operating system. As with any new operating system, it is possible that some existing software is not compatible ", indicated from Avira has tried to explain what little explanation since Windows 8 uses the same kernel as Windows 7 and their differences are more for their Metro interface and its touchscreen support than anything else. Avira says it is working with Microsoft to ensure compatibility of the products as soon as possible, something that will not happen until the first quarter of 2013. topic rare when other security providers for weeks that announced their support for Windows 8 and there are already more than 30 solutions that support both 32 and 64 bit Windows 8.Source: MuySeguridad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
