It monitors all files and programs running on your system and is the main componant of the avast real time scanner. If this is missing you are unprotected. Recommend a complete re-install and then a complete scan including all locations.

Hello Munna,

In addition, you might check in your Avast settings to make sure that File System Sheild, under the REAL-TIME SHIELDS tab, is started by clicking on the Start button to gray it out.

​

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Hello Munna - A lot of great info above... Avast is one of the programs I have set as my main AV... I follow it up with MSE as a backup and scan here and there with it... but must add, I haven't had a virus in years... GL
