Right click functionality on system tray icon has changed

I also have the same issue it is very long winded now to update AVG (it was a good easy clear way before). The update has made me want to try other virus protection as we speak. I have always been a massive fan of AVG for the ease of use but i'm not too sure now. If they change it back maybe i'll still use it but not as it is. Hate it! Glad i found this post i thought it was just me i uninstalled thinking it had all gone wrong or something.

Robert,
Thank you for reaching out to us with your concerns. We do understand your concern, thank you for your valuable suggestion. Due to recent update with our AVG programs, we made this changes and gathering recommendations from our valuable customers like you. We will definitely let our developers about this. Thank you!

In the past couple of days it seems that all the options that were in the right click menu were replaced with a new menu with two buttons in it, one saying "open" and the other "scan now" or whatever it days when scanning. 

Is there anyway of changing it back to the older right click menu where you could cancel a scan simply?.. rather than this new method that requires you to open the gui for the entire software package and significantly increases the time taken.

If there is not a way to change it back could someone please inform me as to why the desision was made to change it? A great deal of incoveniance has been added to a piece of software that should run in the background and not cause bother.

Brian,
We apologize for the confusion. Do not worry, we have already escalated this concern to our developers and thank you for your valuable feedback. AVG carefully monitors the quality of our products and the service we provide, therefore all feedback from our customers is important to us. Thank you for your better understanding.

yes i too have just had the security update that has changed the right click options to only
OPEN AVG
SCAN NOW
personally i think its a mistake to only show 2 options! plz bring back UPDATE
and most importantly when i asked AVG TECH why i cannot update from right click on taskbar she advised a repair and possible uninstall and reinstall to solve the issue!! i think its crazy AVG TECH did not know that latest update removed previous right click options on taskbar icon. and also the HELP section on UPDATES still says right click on taskbar icon to update, this information is wrong!! please rectify avg, and maybe an email to customers advising changes will surely stop us panicking and sressing especially when given WRONG TECH ADVICE ON PHONE,
regards.
