Am new to Avast free and Internet Security. Installed software for my new scanner, and I'm having problems that might be solved if I temporarily disable Avast and reinstall software. Found directions here and elsewhere for easily disabling, but when I right click on Avast icon on desktop, the "shields" option doesn't show...Just "Open," "Open file location," "Run as Administrator," some others, and then Cut, Delete, Rename. What do I do?
BTW, my desktop icon for Avast free seems to be called, "Avast Free Antivirus Setup Online." Is this the right icon...the one for the program?
Will I also need to disable Avast Internet Security to successfully reinstall scanner software? Thanks a lot.
