Thank you.

My pro protection trial recently expired, and I want to remain on the free plan. So when I open AVG Zen, it asks me to upgrade and I ignore it and continue to AVG Protection. When the AVG Protection window opens, I can see the normal 4 dials telling me the status of protection, and then a pop-up appears telling me my pro rial has expired and how to get it back. There is no exit button and I can move it out of the way. I want to check any issues with my pc and I cannot with this in the way. I am attempting to add a screenshot, but finding it hard
