Today there is an update on my avast and avast require me to restart the computer in order to install the update, and then i click restart now on avast application then windows starting to restart but "this apps is preventing shutdown" screen appear and its said avast preventing shutdown and i click shutdown anyway and computer begin to restart and turn on again, avast application running just fine. But i am curious is it fine when i click shutdown anyway ? I am afraid when i clicking shutdown anyway i am force closing avast while they installing the update and made my avast broken/corrupted. What do you guys think ?
This is "this apps is preventing shutdown" screen i talking about

Glad to hear that. And when does avast installing the update? Is avast installing the update when you click restart now or after you restart your computer ?

When you get asked it's already updated but some changes need a reboot.

I see. So they apply the changes when my computer turn on after restart. Correct?

Some of them, yes.

Some of them, yes.
So this is mean i am not interrupting anything when i click shutdown anyway. Right?

I personally wait and allow Windows to close the program and restart on it's own.
