Hi
Have you tried a simple 'repair' of you Avast installation
In Avast go to Menu/Settings/Troubleshooting and click 'Repair App' follow instructions.
Any other Security software installed?

I don't see that setting or button in either my Avast Free installations on XP Pro SP3 or Win10 systems.  At first I thought it might be an XP thing, but the same Troubleshooting options.

Both of these have the latest regular release version 18.6.2349 ???

I thought that might be the case, thanks for the confirmation.

Sorry guys, my bad.
The betas are so smooth I forgot that it was on the beta version. I was referring to (my own installation).

Edit:
To do a Repair: Go to Programs(Add & Remove)Features/Select Avast/click on Uninstall then choose 'Repair'
Follow instructions.
