Avast internet security, not really sure what you call it but the firewall for the internet everything, i have the same issue with malwarebytes premium which neither had problems till one day i was playing a game then the screen blacked, it became unresponsive so i single tapped the off power button and it successfully closed all programs and shut down, then when i started it up it began acting strangely with some aspects of the computer working fine like the internet but the taskbar not, then i would restart and it seems it would reverse, so i eventually shut it down for a while and since then it has been fine but afterwards i noticed i had no access to the internet so i had to give certain things in cmd.exe admin and it began to work find, however i noticed the firewalls were not working anymore.
Some other interesting things is i cannot run windows defender at all and at on point when my computer was acting up it said i had to activate my Windows in the bottom right.
