It appears that Avast employees, instead of identifying a threat, simply eliminated the possibility of its occurrence by disabling the entire application without any reason. They could have just as easily disabled the browser in the same way, since it is also dangerous to use. It's like instead of fixing something, they decided not to bother and just cut it off at the root. How is it possible that I, as an OS administrator, cannot run PowerShell with administrator rights? I can't even run it without rights. Are you out of your mind? Why did I install an antivirus program if it's going to prevent me from using all the features of the OS?

No, it isn't mended.  I still need to disable Avast to run PowerShell.
