[Bug report]: Avast eats a lot of CPU and RAM

[kubasinski13]

Hi there, recently i tried to protect my personal data in your AV program, and used Premium Security to do it. After using Quick scan to find my confidential data, avast GUI hanged up, memory usage raised to 7 GB, CPU used to 100%, and nothing worked. Buttons "Add files" or "Protect files" after clicking started system overflow usage.

To show this problem i'm attaching screenshot from this situation below this post. You should consider fix this issue!



Regards,

OS: Windows 11 Home x64
Avast Premium Security 23.7.6074 (build 23.7.8348.789)

Hi,
I have a similar problem with the sensitive data shield blocking the avast UI.
I thought it was due to my clean instal, but maybe the problem lies elsewhere.
