Even though Avast Firewall works best in most cases to block unwanted spammy webs and services, there are many cases in which users reported about Avast blocking certain games, visual studio, discord, Utorrent and FileZilla.Īnd what’s more frustrating is that when you know that the blocked item is a trusted app and you are not allowed to access it just because of a false positive from Avast Antivirus.
These websites or programs or any hardware can be unblocked by using Avast add exception option.
Avast Exception list also known as Avast Whitelist is a kind of list that helps you in adding those programs or websites which you consider trusted but Avast has shown false positives.
