Windows Defender message always show in Action Center

Yes! I use Avira Antivir Premium (http://www.avira.com/en/products/avira_antivir_premium.html) on my computer.

Sorry for the delay. I didn't receive the corresponding alert on your response.

Thanks in advance.

HiAlvaro Amador,

·        What type of scan are you performing?

·        Is it express or custom scan?

d.     Right click on the service and select Stop

e.     To restart right click and select start

Still no luck!

By the way, I haven't received any alerts about your answers. I think there's something wrong with the alert system.

Anyway, I'll keep this weird message in the Action Center because it's harmless.
