What's with Behavior Shield

[REDACTED]

   A few days ago, I updated to the latest version of Avast program.   Haven't used my PC since,  now I get a warning the Behavior Shield is off.  So, of course I turned it on.  Every time I did, it turned off.  Immediately...
I was going to add my new smartphone to my account.
What is up now??

And you have tried avast repair?

[REDACTED]

Well, I rebooted first..
 Now it shows it's working fine.  Running a scan now... But the scan is acting strange.  It didn't finish the scan... But it's saying it is.   I do think I will do a repair and let you know

It's a known bug that should be fixed by Avast version 17.6

@  streim
Are you still using the avast version you have in your signature ("Avast IT Security 17.4.2294") ?

If so the first step before trying any other fault finding update the program version. If not time to update your forum profile.

  I already updated to the latest version of 17.5.2302.  Actually a couple of reboots fixed the problem. I honestly wasn't fault finding and hadn't updated my profile yet.  Thank you all for your help.
