An annoying thing that's been happening to me recently, to the point I made an account here. Not sure what's causing it and google is no help because it brings up results for the regular kinds of "pop-ups". I've been using Avast Free Anti-Virus for years now and recently I discovered this problem for around a couple of days now.
To describe it, it's a small popup window of Avast that appears for a split second in the center of the screen before it immediately closes itself. Since it closes itself so quickly, I wasn't able to determine what kind of message it is. It seems to occur every 2-4 hours and I'm not certain what triggers it to appear. Not even sure if the issue is Avast itself or something else provoking Avast.
Silent mode has no effect as either on or off has the popup occur. I tried updating avast, restarting my computer, using the repair app function in the settings, and repairing via uninstall. Those didn't solve the issue. As of right now, I did an uninstall and reinstall so I'm gonna see if that fixes the issue or not.
Is anyone else also encountering this issue or just me?
