I'm not sure if it's avast doing this but i agree with @asyn. On my side the system reboots faster as well. And running fine.

I'm finding the same issues I had in 20.9 which is it will not finish the scan after Smart Home Risks.  The arrow disappears and I can't see the results.  I even unchecked wifi inspector and it was ok with advanced issues instead of Smart Home Risks showing but then on the 2nd scan it was back to Smart Home Risks and the same problem.  I repaired etc...same problem that myself and a friend of mine has been having for months!

If you use a legit licence that shouldn't be happening.

On rare cases it can happen (I had this twice due to server issue), but I don't see this happening now.
