Good morning,
I have a rather strange problem, started happening with new installations done today. Basically, new installations are getting "Web shield has been manually disabled on the device by a user" but the user (me at this point, as I'm installing the PC) did not disable anything.
I tried this on three different clean installations today, all with the same status.
Tried repairing
Tried uninstalling/reinstalling
Tried Avast Uninstall Cleanup (the tool to remove the software in safe mode)
Problem remains there after each try.
If I install the Free version of Avast Anti-Virus, it works OK and web shield is enabled normally.
I removed it, and re-installed Avast for Business, and back to square one, "user disabled web shield..."
Anyone saw this behavior?
I suspect it's something that Avast will discover, but if it gets fixed "automatically" with an update I am not sure...
