I get an Update prompt every month or so that pops up in the lower right corner and I click it to accept but the message keeps coming back for a number of days afterwards which is puzzling. I have the automatic updates switched on so wonder why I get the Update message anyway?
It is the BT provided Virus Protect version.

Ah sorry yes I should have included more system information. I am running Windows 10 with the latest updates in mid-January. Automatic updates are switched on for Windows.
Just wondering if you might have any other security software that might be causing a conflict?
