Typically Avast is pushing the online installer (avast_free_antivirus_setup_online.exe) which is really small (about 5 MB) but requires an Internet connection to complete the installation as the biggest part is downloaded during the installation process. Sometimes you need to get Avast on a computer without the Internet connection and that’s why you need to download the offline installer (avast_free_antivirus_setup_offline.exe) in full size which takes almost 300 MB.
Avast offers standalone installers for all their product from antivirus family (Free Antivirus, Pro Antivirus, Internet Security, Premier) to Cleanup or SecureLine.
Avast Free Antivirus 2019 – Offline vs. Online Installer
Offline installer contains the exact version of Avast as an online installer but you can transfer it to a USB disk and install basically anywhere. Even though the computer doesn’t have Internet access it could get infected (for example when you transferring data from USB sticks, CDs or DVDs) and that’s why you need Avast Antivirus protection. All Avast offline products are fully compatible with Windows 10, 8, 8.1, 7, Vista and XP (32-bit or 64-bit).

Advantages of the Offline Installer
The offline installer can be easily transferred using a USB stick, external hard drive or DVD. So you can download it and install to anyone even without the Internet connection. The installation process itself is usually faster since the product doesn’t need to download any additional files from the online servers.
Using offline installer you can keep your favorite product version with you, in case you want to go back to it. Online installer always downloads the latest available, so it’s impossible to install an older version.
We recommend updating your offline installer regularly (e.g. replacing the old one with the latest one) as soon as the new version arrives. That way you can simply keep the program up-to-date and enjoy the latest features. You can use it on computers connected to the Internet or without an Internet connection.
Disadvantages of the Offline Installer
Probably the biggest disadvantage of the offline installer is its size. It usually has around 300 MB while the online one has only around 5 MB. You also need to keep it updated for the latest version available unless you want to stick with the older product on purpose.
Is it Safe to Use Offline Installer?
Yes, there is no difference in terms of protection between the offline or online installer. However, it depends on whether your computer is connected to the Internet and able to download updates (both product and virus database ones) for your Avast antivirus.
