Title: Task Scheduler
Post by: denkikoon on January 04, 2023, 03:29:28 AM

I am not even close to being computer legitimate, but I noticed in Task Manager, Task Scheduler, Library, Microsoft, Windows, Windows Defender that all Triggers I set up (with a lot of help) are now missing.
  Could it be that Avast removed them?  If so, should I be concerned that Avast did this without any notification?

What makes you think Avast removed the tasks? Windows defender deactivates itself
as soon as you install any third part Antivirus.
More details about exactly what was removed may also be helpful.
