How to remove Windows Privacy Protection??
I am using AVAST Antivirus in my Laptop. After the scanning by AVAST it is saying there is a virus in the Laptop. I think it is fake because when I restarted the computer it says about a virus and again when restarted it was saying another about another virus. So I need help to remove the ‘Windows Privacy Protection’. The AVAST is runs very slow because of the ‘Windows Privacy Protection’. Kindly help me to get out of this problem. Thanks in advance.
