AVG dominating computer screen

I keep getting mini screens appearing on my screen and I cant view the whole screen as they are at the very front. Ut keeps telling me that my pro protection trial period has expired and the only way to get rid of them is to hit the buy now button - but I dont want to buy!!! I have downloaded the free edition but it keeps telling me to restart - seems this is an ongoing problem with windows 10?  please help me get ride of the mini screen messages! :frowning:
