F-Secure sometimes deactivated?
Without any upgrading of the program. Why? To enable it again, I need to restart the computer. No other ways to enable F-secure. No access to the Security-page on the Windows 10-computer. No virus - no malware - I think… A full scanning gave nothing. And the program gives no warning.
