I got the same message as you today and for a couple of days ago. It´s very irritating espacially when there is no explanation why this happens. Or has the Avast team made any comments about it in the forum ?
If Repair doesn’t fix the problem, try the following:
If your Avast settings are not the default settings and you want them restored after the Clean Install, follow this before removing Avast. https://goo.gl/TXjM7h Clean Install of Avast: https://goo.gl/4Ptzkf
If you need additional help with the Clean Install, watch this: https://youtu.be/p-h3myRD51A
Did you actually restart your system as suggested ?
Before you do make a note of your version number (build number) and your UI version. Then check after the reboot and see if they have changed.
I get it once a while. What I’ve noticed is that every time I reboot, the UI version is different. So, guessing it’s an update each time to that UI.
If you want to see if this is the case for you as well, make a note of your UI version (Menu, then About) and then at the next reboot request, after you’ve restarted your computer, see if that UI number has changed.
Hi, I’m sorry for this issue. Could you (anyone affected by that) collect logs for us? We need these: c:\Users\All Users\AVAST Software\Persistent Data\Avast\Logs\ +
c:\ProgramData\AVAST Software\Avast\log\ → copy them somewhere, pack them (zip) and send them please to lukas.munduch@avast.com
