Apologies for the silence but things happen. My original issue remains:
I am still having a problem opening the Avast Simple Interface. Well it seems to open but it immediately goes to the task bar and I am unable to maximise it AT ALL. When the mouse hovers over the tab in the task bar the little window pops up but nothing happens after I click on it. I am only encountering this problem with Avast! -- all other tabs maximise normally.
I am running PC Tools firewall plus (windows Firewall turned off) and both Avast and Windows Defender are turned on and up to date (as reported by windows)
Could someone please advise me how I can get the Avast Simple User Interface accessible.
Here is an image which illustrates the problem
