Some netizens suspected that the antivirus software avast was not compatible with the new system, but avast issued a statement saying that after research, it has found no bugs that affect the update of Windows 10 system.
The Microsoft side has remained silent and has not given any explanation. However, yesterday Microsoft temporarily suspended pushing April 10 update to avast users, which is equivalent to directly verifying that the issue still came from avast.
Sure enough, avast now admits that after in-depth analysis with Microsoft, the final confirmation of the problem is caused by his home software.
An avast engineer stated at the official forum: 'We cooperated with Microsoft and found that some changes in the Windows 10 1803 update are incompatible with the avast Behavior Sheild (behavioural protection component), resulting in partial update failures, including time issues, network connection Problems, etc. '
Avast has released a repair patch and will automatically update it. The VPS version number will be upgraded to 180524-08. After upgrading the Windows 10 April update, it will not become a brick.
If you have upgraded bricks and don't want to reinstall the system, you can try to make the Windows 10 April update into a bootable USB drive or CD, and then upgrade it in-situ. This will not only fix the problem, it will not lead to the loss of files and data.
