An automatic update was done today for Windows 8.1. Since the update, I keep getting asked to give permission to access the computer for unknown applications. I have checked the status of my AVG which is saying I am not fully protected as follows:-

  • Computer - not active. Details: resident shield component is not active, but shows antivirus enabled.
  • Web browsing - partially functional. Details- link-scanner-surf-shield and online shield are both enabled, but online shiend is not completely functional
  • Identity - disabled. Details: in green showing it is enabled, but warning notice says it is disabled.
  • Emails - protected
  • Firewall - restart needed (  I have already restarted the computer 3 times since the problem started)
 I  have also tried "click to fix all"  - no success.
I have tried running a scan - says "could not finish automatic state repair. We Weren't able to fix one of more components.

I have tried unistalling AVG but it comes up with an error box.

Any suggestions please - as non technical as possible as I dont really know what I am doing....
