Got a popup that some piece of software tried to modify my hosts file.

Which program tried to modify it?  I need to investigate.  .

 

where are the Avira log files?  why are they so hard to find?

  Hello mark129845,

  Here a way to the LOGFILES:   "C:\ProgramData\Avira\Antivirus\LOGFILES\"

  Win10:  Windows C ⇒ ProgrammData ⇨ Avira ⇨ Antivirus ⇒ LOGFILES

  Does that help you?

  Otherwise, please contact us again, we will be happy to help.

  Many greetings

  I do not have a \LOGFILES\ folder.    are logfiles not available in the free version?

  Hello mark129845,

  If this Avira information "LOGFILES" is also available in the Free version, unfortunately I cannot tell you, because I do not have this version at the moment.
  However, I believe that Avira also provides data for this version for verification purposes...
  Maybe you can find more data of the Avira installation:

  

  
  Please have a look at the following instructions:
  https://support.avira.com/hc/en-us/articles/360003513157-Avira-Community-Guidelines 

  In order to understand your request, please be as specific as possible. Hopefully this will enable us to answer your question.

  Many greetings and a nice Sunday evening
