Updated two desktop computers running Windows 10 Pro 64bit to Windows 1803.
Besides the Rescue disk creation option not working, I’ve now found that the Avast Safe Zone browser doesnt work either. The browser starts OK, but cannot be shut down, Just get the browser not responding error from Windows.
The Safe Zone browser can only be shut down with Task Manager by cancelling the process tree.
Also the Bank Mode in the Safe Zone Browser doesn’t work at all, it just opens a blank screen that cant be closed.
Windows Event Viewer shows the following error for Avast Safe Zone Browser:
