aswEngSrv.exe again

Problem called “aswEngSrv.exe” started again. I connected an external 3,5" 500 GB Toshiba to my desktop via USB, and HDD is continuously crunichng.

Resource Monitor ( Win + R → resmon ) shows clearly the culprit.

How to avoid it, unless disable Avast for 10 mins / 1 hr. / a day / uninstall ?

  • Which Avast…? (Free/Premium)
  • Which version/build of Avast…?
  • OS…? (32/64 Bit…? - which SP/Build…?)
  • Other security related software installed…?
  • Which AV(s) did you use before Avast…?
