Avast Shield preventing Diabo 4 from booting at once

Avast Free Antivirus / Premium Security

Hi,
I have for a while had an issue where Diablo 4 will not boot up at once when launching it in battle.net app on PC.
I finally found the issue and it is related to Avast Shield-thing.
If I turn off the Active shields, the game boost instantly.

I have added both battlenet and Diablo install locations to the exclude thing in Avast, but it does not help.

I have to turn off the Avast active protection each time, and then turn it on again.

Is there a fix for this so I don’t need to turn off my Avast shields all the time?

Kind Regards,
Stian

The Avast Shield thing, consists of many components, can you be a little more detailed on what you did.

So rather than turning off all active protection, it would be better selecting/stopping individual components to try and pin down which active component is conflicting.

I don’t work for Avast and I’m not a gamer so I haven’t experienced this problem.
