We're sorry to hear about the inconvenience caused.
AVG AntiVirus free or AVG Internet Security has a feature called Do Not Disturb Mode. Do Not Disturb Mode works to silence unnecessary notifications while you run almost any application in fullscreen.
Had you contacted us earlier, we'd have helped you with enabling this feature.
Did you see any error or encounter any issues while uninstalling AVG?
If I may ask, how did you narrow down that uninstalling AVG has corrupted your operating system?
About uninstalling AVG. I had an error message from the uninstaller or the system while uninstalling, then my computer crashed and was never able to reboot again.
Any resolution to this? I've having this same issue with a fresh install of windows 11 and avg, and previous posts dont have any resolve other than uninstall and cancel avg subscription.
In the past month, I noticed that my computer would lose focus on the opened application and then switch it back quickly. It is similar to using alt-tab twice in a row, except, you don't gain focus back immediately. It is quite irritating and gaming is near impossible with this issue.
I looked in the event viewer. Here is what the log says:
Process C:\Program Files (x86)\AVG\Antivirus\AVGSvc.exe (process ID:3792) reset policy scheme from {8c5e7fda-e8bf-4a96-9a85-a6e23a8c635c} to {8c5e7fda-e8bf-4a96-9a85-a6e23a8c635c}

Even when I disable the security, it still happens. It happens not only in game but whenever i use my computer. It happens every 5 minutes or so.
I tried to shutdown the program though task manager, but the access is denied. Now, I'd want to uninstall, but last time I did that, the AVG uninstaller did such a poor job, it corrupted my windows, I lost everything and I had to reinstall windows. So, I'm out of options here.
Thank you for you're help.
Are you experiencing the same issue after reinstalling Windows and AVG programs on your PC?
Please confirm so we can offer additional support to check further.
