By appears, do you mean it opens on screen ?
I would imaging that this debug log would be updated on each restart, should there ever be something wrong, this debug report could be uploaded to Avast for analysis.

Broken Windows 11? Let Windows fix it!
New in the latest Canary Build of Windows 11
"Fix problem using windows update"

Since this is a canary build the function could be removed but it's nice to have.
The tool installs a “repair version” of Windows 11, and then applies default settings
to the operating system and attempts to reboot without touching any of your personal programs or storage.
Not as devastating as a reset or a clean install of Windows 11.

I'm not 100% sure where to post this issue related to W11, however, something inside W11 security feature is preventing me to create an Avast settings backup .avastconfig file.

Does anybody know what the issue is, causing inside the W11 security settings feature is preventing me to create an Avast settings backup .avastconfig file.

Thank you.

Are you using the "backup settings" option in troubleshooting?
I just did that on one of my Windows 11 systems without problems.
You are asked and must grant to allow the file creation.

Show Desktop button missing - Get it back

https://youtu.be/AmN_uoAJlWs
A recent Windows 11 made this button (function) disappear.
This video shows you how to restore the button.

It should be working for you in the latest
Insider preview build but if it is not, this is how to fix it.
