I have this same issue that occurred after an AVG update. Couldn't fix it by changing the settings or other options, it just seems to turn off whenever I shut down and needs to be turned on manually whenever I start up my computer again. To me it doesn't seem like it should be such a hard problem to fix, after all, it was caused by an AVG update so should be easy enough to reverse it. However, this issue has been unresolved for a while now. Cheers.

Same here with knobs on.  When will this confounded nuisance be fixed?
