Uninstalling and Discontinuing Cloud Backup

This Article Applies to:

  • Avast Business CloudCare

IMPORTANT: The CloudCare console does not support opening multiple tabs in the same browser session. Please use multiple browsers or incognito mode instead.

UPDATE: As of 19 October 2026, two-factor authentication (2FA) is required for all CloudCare partner, self-managed, and distributor users. As part of this enforcement, 2FA was reset for all users, so you must complete a new setup the next time you log in, even if you previously had 2FA enabled.
This is expected behavior and does not indicate an issue with your account. The new setup uses an updated MFA solution with improved security, so your previous 2FA enrollment cannot be reused.
Thank you for your cooperation in completing this security update. Please contact us if you need assistance.
