Firewall: stopping and restarting minor bug...

yeah that’s minor, stopping and restarting it lead to Windows Action center popping up an alert that it’s still turned off. Only way to fix that is a reboot (minor because it’s just a communication issue between avast firewall and windows when the firewall actually runs again)

For now, you could just reset the repository…wouldn’t that prevent a reboot?

Or if you do it a lot there is Fixwin that resets it without all of the steps…(vista/seven)
I have tried it and it works, the setting is under system tools…

hum...I'd rather not do that, issue isn't that bad.

Yeah, that’s why I suggested fixwin, saves all the hassle of resetting the repository if it happens often…

I got a backup of the WMI repos just in case…of a real disaster. Never saw that happen so far, and again, the bug is too minor, but thanks for suggesting fixwin :wink:
