Basically, I recently upgraded to the Anniversary edition. But now I keep getting these notifications about my AV being deactivated, when I immideatly check, it's not deactivated. Can someone please tell me what is happening?

Free version and it was the 11.2.2262 but I just updated it as I noticed it was out of date. I have MBAM on my PC as well, and Defender does occasional scans.

It is not Kaspersky's forum and there was nothing releted to Avast!.The screenshot is all about WD and Kaspersky IS. ;)

My notification wasn't in English, so I found one in English. It's almost the same notification, but in mine it says Avast.

Could it have been that my Avast was outdated?
