Smart scan keeps saying Outdated apps
Terminée
Seen many posts about this issue (like VLC)..
Had the same..
Fixed by doing a Windows Uninstall of VLC, and re-install..
Looks like Avira is not really using the module version - may be using a registry entry?
My guess is VLC is not updating a registry entry on an update ..
Just a guess..

Hello,
Yes, there were difficulties with VLC, see also the information from VLC, starting with version:
https://www.videolan.org/vlc/releases/3.0.12-update.html
It may well be that VLC has now made changes to the installation, supposedly fixed since 3.0.16
Kind regards

Good to know..
This also happened to "Notepad++" - uninstall/reinstall fixed that software too.
.
Side note.. There where some microsoft Software names being reported by Avira, that did not match any actual MIcrosoft install -- I took a swag and installed something with the same release (and partial name) and that also fixed the out-of-date software - So I will blame Microsoft for having inconsistent names!

I'm a new user to Avira... I see this happening for numerous apps on my system.
E.g. Apple Software Update, WinMerge, Bonjour, VC++ 2015+, Notepad++
These have been updated. Also, while I have not updated my WinZip, I do not want to!
So... what can I do? I like that Avira shows these... however, it would be nice to empower me manage it better.

Hello Edward,
We are pleased to welcome you as a new user of the Avira product.
You are writing here on the subject of "Security for Windows".
Unfortunately, you have not provided any information about your installation.- Installed OS? (exact version with last update number)
- Avira license? (Free or paid, exact version)
- Installed Avira Apps?
- WinZip? (normal and important are current apps?!)
Normally, you can choose which apps should be updated.
Without exact information, it is unfortunately not possible for us to help you with the settings of your apps or with instructions.
For different apps, it makes sense to open a separate thread. There are various reasons why an app cannot be updated. This will help to keep an overview. Thank you for your understanding.
With the answers and precise information, we will be pleased to try to be helpful with concrete details.
Many greetings

I have a paid version of Avira 1.1.51.20724 installed on Windows 10 21H1 (Build 19043.1147). I believe that I have only Avira Prime installed.
The software that I have listed are showing as out of date. However, when I check the application itself, the version installed is indeed the version noted by Avira as the "New Version". In each case, I have indeed updated the software. As mentioned, the only software I have NOT updated is WinZip.
