Core Shields Won't Turn On
« on: November 06, 2019, 01:03:31 AM »
I've been using the Avast Free Antivirus for Mac for a while now. A few days ago I updated my computer and I got an Avast notification that some of my Core Shields were turned off and that I neede to turn them on. But when I went to do so, it wouldn't work. It has been like that for a few days now and I have no clue how to fix it or what type of risks I could be facing. I would really appreciate any help with this issue.
Thanks.

This may receive more help in the Avast Mac Security sub-forum.

Whilst in the windows forum you might well have been asked to reboot as your first course of action.  Secondly an Avast Repair, but I don't know what features are supported in the Avast Mac Security product, being a Windows user.
Windows 10 Home 64bit/ Acer Aspire F15/ Intel Core i5 7200U 2.5GHz, 8GB DDR4 memory, 256GB SSD, 1TB HDD/ avast! free 24.3.6108 (build 24.3.8975.762) UI 1.0.801/ Firefox, uBlock Origin, uMatrix/ MailWasher Pro/ Avast! Mobile Security
