I'm using the latest free beta version of Avast. (Self Protection is enabled)
As you can see, no problem creating the Rescue media.

Is your USB at least 4 gig ? (There was a long delay after the creation reached 86% on my creation
and the time when I got the final completion message.

I went one step further and actually tested the created rescue media:


To me, this indicates that as of the current beta build, the Avast Rescue Disc utility is working properly.

I turned off the selfe defense option but the rescue disk still fails.

The USB stick I used has 32 GB and is type 3.0 So I tried another stick, type USB 2.0 16GB and this time the rescue disk has been created. So the problem is solved.
Thanks forum friends fot the good suggestions.
