AVG incompatible with a future version of macOS

Hi René,

We understand your concern.

Let me clarify this for you.

AVG AntiVirus and AVG Internet Security for Mac currently use kernel extensions to provide real-time protection for your Mac. We are aware that the Apple guidelines for software developers are changing and we are actively working to improve our products so that they are fully compliant with the upcoming changes. Our transition from kernel extensions to Endpoint Security and Network Extension frameworks is expected to be ready in time for the next major macOS release.

For more details about legacy system extensions, refer to the following announcement from Apple:​

Thank you for understanding.

Hi, I'm experiencing the same problem. I'm a paying customer but on a newest MacOS 10.15.5. I'm not even able to open/strat the AVG app. Any suggestions?

AVG, is there any new information you can offer about AVG's efforts to address this?

Goodafternoon,
After installing macOS Catalina version 10.15.4 I got the message below:


Legacy System Extension

Existing software on your system loaded a system extension signed by “AVG Technologies CZ, s.r.o.”, which will be incompatible with a future version of macOS.
Contact the developer for support.

Is AVG Technologies aware of this issue?
Regards
