Restart the PC and reinstall the AVG to fix this issue.
Hello! I have noticed that after every reboot, the password protection (option located in Hacker Attacks) keeps getting disabled. I can't seem to figure out why or how to stop that from happening. Please, if anyone knows what I can do to figure this out, I'd be truly thankful!
I tried calling tech support and waited 1hr20mins only for the agent to keep cutting in and out for several minutes at a time. After 1hr40mins, it hung up on me.
