Hello guys,
as stated in the subject, apparently Avast is sending me randomly to desktop while playing.
I´m using Avast since ~10 years and never had issues, but this one is annoying and I´ve no clue how to fix it.
Maybe it helps if I attach some information.
Build: W10 (64).
(Apparently) Only occurs when playing CS GO.
If some further information are missing let me know.
Thanks in advance.
Best wishes

- Which Avast..? (Free/Pro/IS/Premier)
- Which version..?
- OS..? (32/64 Bit..? - which SP/Build..?)
- Other security related software installed..?
- Which AV(s) did you use before Avast..?

Hello,
thanks for the answer.
It is Avast free.
Version: 18.6.2349
OS is W10 Pro, latest update, Build: 17134.
Other installed programms (but not running in the background/not automatically activating when starting): Spybot + CCleaner.
I don´t know which one I used before, probably Kaspersky (I´m using Avast since ~2007).
Maybe this one is of help: https://www.reddit.com/r/GlobalOffensive/comments/9d06hh/csgo_randomly_minimizes_please_help/e5gh7mz/

Best wishes

1. Other installed programms (but not running in the background/not automatically activating when starting): Spybot + CCleaner.
2. Maybe this one is of help: https://www.reddit.com/r/GlobalOffensive/comments/9d06hh/csgo_randomly_minimizes_please_help/e5gh7mz/
1. Be sure to get rid of Spybot, it's known for conflicts.
2. Did you try to exclude the game as mentioned..!?

Hello,
the second one did not work for me.
However, the first one did.
Any idea, why they are not working properly together? I mean, I never had problems with both of them for around ten years.
Anyway, thanks for your help!
