Problem #1: When I open Avast free antivirus user interface (20.3.2405) my mouse clicks does not work anywhere on the screen. I have to press alt+tab to make it to work. I was facing this problem in earlier versions also. However, updating it to latest version has not helped.

Problem #2: Notifications from Avast stays on the screen for about 2 minutes. My attempt to close it by mouse does not work. Possibly related to problem #1.

I could not even click on "About Avast" on the system tray. I had to use the keyboard with tabs and then use enter to get the version information.

I am using a USB mouse. Win10 Home 1909 18363.778). However, I have had this problem for about a year now and I don't think it is related to Win10 version.

How do I get this resolved? These have become very annoying.

It generated the diagnostic file but did not generate File ID. At the support side for free version there is no provision to submit a ticket.

Also I noticed that this problem is only on my laptop (Dell). On my other Desktop with same versions (Win10 and Avast) I don't see this problem.

1. It generated the diagnostic file but did not generate File ID.
2. At the support side for free version there is no provision to submit a ticket.
1. Try again, if you don't get a File-ID provide the file name.
2. That's why I told you to post it here. ;)

What mouse exactly do you use? Any name, model, ...?
Any special control software for the mouse?

I ran again. I am attaching the screenshots of the scan completion and the contents of the .zip it generated. I wonder how it helps if file name is given. Here are the two file names generated. "20200507_0546_VTT55_2418242752.zip" and "20200508_0403_I30K2_2418242752.zip"

I tried using the laptop trackpad. Same problem. Apart from the standard ones in the laptop, I use wireless keyboard (logitech) and USB mouse (Glink). My wireless mouse stopped working and so am using USB mouse for time being. Basically I have 2 keyboards, 3 mouse drivers installed. Here is the screenshot of device manager.

I found the cause of the problem. It is due to the script that I was running that corrects mouse clicks. When I closed the script, I no longer have this problem. Thanks to the time and effort to Asyn and igor
