WMI has been the cause of a lot of problems but, not just with Avast.  A quick web search returns plenty of topics on this

Happy Monday (NOT).  Here we go again!  That may well be the case with the WMI, however, every time now I reboot something else is amiss.
New Issues: #1-- it shows I have 2 devices connected (I only have one).  I use Kapersky on other one. 
#2--in my Firewall under application rules, it shows maybe 12 total (between 8 Microsoft, 2 Adobe,1 CCleaner and 1or 2 Google and that's about it.)  Then when I go to networking all the different applications are running.  I have no way of controlling the connections.  Along with this issue, it says I am not receiving streaming updates in my stats portion.
#3 Friday I purchased the VPN and I don't know why I bothered.  :'( They took my money immediately)--- but no license number. 
#4 AND it shows 5 Avast processes running--yet only 3 are connected to a service.
Please help as these annoyances with Avast have put me over a month behind in my work.

So sorry.   I didn't mean to sound so mean.  I've read several other posts; many having similar issues.  I will check back tomorrow to see if these issues have fixes.
Have a nice evening all.
