Avast blocs software for syncing Outlook calendar with iPhone 7s

[Elzevir]

Hi guys!

I'm using Windows 10 on my home PC and Avast as my primary antivirus software. It's been almost two years since I switched to Avast and it worked flawlessly until now when I installed software for syncing Outlook calendar with iPhone calendar. The software is called Akruto and here you can find a video on steps necessary to set up syncing: http/www.akruto.com/sync-iphone-with-outlook/

The problems start when I try to sync my calendar data. Automatic calendar syncing doesn't work till I kill the Avast process from Task Manager. Then, everything works flawlessly.
I wonder if there are few steps missing in this video on how to configure Avast to work with Akruto? I don't really want to stop my antivirus each time I want to update my iPhone calendar.

Thanks in advance!

Hey Elzevir, have you tried setting up exclusions in the client? Here's how:

Also, are you using Avast Free or a paid version? If you have the firewall enabled, you may need to add an exclusion there also.

Thanks for your support!
