Can't Access Email Links or Search

Clicked on something in Avast this morning to do some sort of update and now I can’t access any links or search via Edge.

I’ve had this problem before, but can’t remember how to resolve it. Please help!

do you use a vpn with an add on extention in your brouser.
had similar issues with nord extention (nord vpn itself no issues) which for some reason wont connect at times and it makes all my saved links just time out.

No, but it reminded me of what the Avast update was: shields. Namely, the mail and web ones. They’re really good. They shielded me from almost any internet contact and all email links - sheesh.

Grateful thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
