Hi there,
Usually I see once per month avast will update itself and cause my computer to run awfully, a restart usually fixes it (this seems to be normal for Windows 10, installs will wreck it until restart)
I just want to ask someone to confirm new features that I haven't seen before? With how badly it happened this time I am worried a virus has taken Avasts place.
Also I am using Windows 10 Pro with the Avast Free.
On getting to the desktop, a popup appeared next to the date/time showing "Startup Scan" in progress with options to Stop or Pause it, completing quickly. I have never seen this before and was the first thing that worries me that this is a virus.
Secondly, I had a weird perhaps bug with it where starting a new Quick Scan would keep making this "Startup Scan" popup appear, although that has stopped now that the startup scan managed to complete.
Are these features other people have?? Hopefully, otherwise it is time to fumigate my PC
.
Thanks!
