Hello, Avast antivirus finds that Wi-Fi Direct default password is too weak and neglect the wireless with my printer. I tried to change it with HpSmart but this aplicattion does not recognize the password to access configuration- security  settings. 

 I can niether modify the aplicatton  password,  and it does not show me the link:  "¿forget your password?" to recovery it from my e-mail  

¿Any idea to solve this , please?

I forgot to said that Avira antivirus shows a link to consider the problem as "resolved".  If i Click it  and Avast let me use Wi-Fi Direct  ¿Its there a  risk for my laptop to be infected with malware  through my printer Wi-Fi ?
