Exactly, stopping a scan closes the log report for it also at the point that scan was stopped. So there is no point for a resumption, had he selected Pause, then there would/should have been the ability to Resume.

Opened the avast Scan Computer section, Started a Quick Scan, closed the avastUI and the scan in progress pop-up appeared as expected, image1 (note the Resume option).

I closed this scan in progress pop-up, I opened the avastUI and low and behold the Scan was still paused with Resume button available/active.

I pressed Resume and guess what, the scan resumed, image3. I stopped the Scan and it was concluded no resume option as expected and the log had been closed for that scan with only a fraction of my normal Quick scan completed, image4.

So all in all everything working as expected.

Hi David,
   Thank for trying. Can you do just as I am saying plz...
1.  Start a quick Scan or full scan from GUI and close UI.
2.  A pop up will be shown showing scan progress....Right?
3.  Stop the scan from the pop.. And close the pop up or let it close itself.
4.  Then right click on avast icon and click last popup shown...

I think it should a popup which will showing Scan/Cancelled....(if I am not wrong)
But its showing me this..(see screnshot notice nothing is written there like Running, paused or stopped)

Once you STOP the Scan its STOPPED! you cant resume a stopped scan. You can only resume a paused scan! There is nothing wrong with the GUI. When you click "show last popup" it shows the last popup but since you stopped the Scan you cant resume it!

Hope I made it clear..  ;D

Did as indicated and the last pop up said running and the scan resumed and finished with no stop.
Tell me the message does not say "run" "stopped" "paused", but when you open is the scan itself running?

Maybe your computer is lagging due to the scan? Being you are closing it out and continuing a different task? I thought I would mention that as a possibility. I can't tell if the system having a problem due to lack of system info but its just a thought. That would be the first thing I would think, second thing I would try is to see if Avast! would finish without closing the UI and seeing if it completes.

You clicked "Show Last popup" right? so it did what you asked it to do.. The resume button is a part of that popup.. This isnt an issue nor a bug... its normal! Those buttons are a part of that popup..

Oh you maybe right about this  ;D You didnt explain the problem properly and now only you submitted the proper screenshot.. Its a minor bug I think   ;D

Yes yes.. Its a small bug I think, I'm also experiencing it.. and now since you added a screenshot of how it should be, I'm sure the others will also realize what you're trying to say here..

Its a very minor issue.. Nothing serious.. and yea they will work on it but I'm sure they have bigger things to worry about.. WebRep for Chrome for instance..

Hi David,
   Thank for trying. Can you do just as I am saying plz...
1.  Start a quick Scan or full scan from GUI and close UI.
2.  A pop up will be shown showing scan progress....Right?
3.  Stop the scan from the pop.. And close the pop up or let it close itself.
4.  Then right click on avast icon and click last popup shown...

I think it should a popup which will showing Scan/Cancelled....(if I am not wrong)
But its showing me this..(see screnshot notice nothing is written there like Running, paused or stopped)

Essentially that is what I did (excluding step 4 & 5, as I wouldn't dream of trying to show the last pop-up.

This however isn't what I would call a pop-up in the sense of the Update, Alert, Notice or Warning pop-ups, so personally I wouldn't even have tried to show the last pop-up.

What purpose would it serve even if it were to pop-up ?
Since the scan was stopped it couldn't be restarted or a new one started as this can't be used to launch a scan, I see zero purpose in trying to have it pop-up again.

However, I did try it and it does work for me, clicking resume, just shows scan stopped/cancelled, though as I said I see absolutely no purpose in it doing that.
