Doesn't matter.  Did the procedure and left HTPPS scanning off and tried two downloads.  Both failed after 1-2 minutes.

What happens if you stop the web shield and try a download again ?

This is a bit weird given that you are able to browse (but not download) if it were, then I would have been thinking firewall blocking avast.

Rechecked that the HTPPS scanning was still off and it wasn't.  Apparently, turning the Web Shield back on automatically re-engaged it.  Turned off the HTTPS Scanning again and have tried two downloads.  So far both are running for about 20 minutes.  So far so good.  Will keep you posted.

Re-enabling the web shield shouldn't have enabled the https scanning - that should have stayed off until you re-enabled https.

You aren't running avast on a limited user account as that could have an impact on changing settings ?

Fingers crossed then on your downloads.

The downloads ultimately failed.  Not sure what to try next.

Is the any way to download the old version of Avast to install to see if that changes anything?  Not a long term solution, but it would possibly tell us if the issue is indeed here.
