4. Reboot.

I'm sorry for really not understanding what the term Avast GUI means. Do you mean Guide?             
  Where is Avast GUI , How do i access it? Can it be reached in Avast Passwords, Avast Secureline VPN, Avast AntiTrack Premium, Avast Driver Updater or Avast Premium Security?

GUI = Graphical User Interface   
You access it when you open Avast  or, rightclick the Avast Icon in the system tray and select Open Avast User Interface

It isn't an option in mine, but then again don't you have to have the Avast Data Shredder installed (a paid product) ?

Well bob3160, I was actually opening the Recycle bin up & then Right Clicking inside the Already open Recycle Bin.

Do you recognize this Pic now?

The 2nd. Pic Attached is how the Recycle Bin (if Empty) won't show Shred Recycle Bin using Avast

It doesn't work from inside the Recycle Bin.4
If you'd prefer not to receive help from me, that's also possible.

<snip>

It doesn't work from outside (Right Click) the desktop Recycle Bin icon either, as my previous post shows.

I haven't got Omni, nor do I have the Avast Data Shredder product.  However I don't know if "xairedale" has either. 

Given his Topic Title Shred Recycle Bin Using Avast Option is Missing ..... it would appear he had this option previously

Avast Omni uses Avast Premium Security for it's AV protection.
So when I state Omni, the protection I'm using on my system is Premium Security.
I have no idea what version of Avast the user is using.

That is fine Bob, you have already said you can see it with Omni. 

But we still don't know what the OP has on their system, that is what I was pointing out.

It’s Not showing the   Shred Recycle Bin with or using Avast. I tried using the advice in the Avast Community Forum, but that Suggestion to Repair Avast
