Ever since loading the new version 22.4.6011 (build 22.4.7175.722) I've noticed that the program runs A LOT MORE than it used to, and the cursor will show "busy/normal/busy/normal" blinking like that every second (or more rapidly sometimes). Obviously Avast is doing something, checking files or...something, but I can't figure it out.
I have the free Avast and no other programs, and yeah, pretty sure it's Avast because I have an identical laptop for the spouse and it does NOT have the new version and it does NOT have this issue.
Anyone else have this problem? Anyone know what's wrong and how to fix?
Yes, I checked for viruses, ran the repair program and uninstalled/reinstalled the program. No diff.
