Hi. I have also been having trouble temporarily disabling avast. When I R clk on the avast icon, I get 2 choices-unpin or open. Under “Security” there are many shields. What should I turn off?
Thanks,

Right click the taskbar icon
You guys keep repeating yourselves. I may be a newbie, but not an idiot. This is not working for me, so I went into avast, to security, and temporarily turned off every shield until I reboot. Seems to be working for the scans I am running. Thanx anyway.
If you do not have the right click menu as shown then conduct a repair of Avast via control panel add remove
Didn’t think of that. Thank you, my dear 8)
