Download Problems any Windows mail attachment

[Tuscoro]

Lately I have out of nowhere developed a problem, I use window mail, suddenly I cannot open, save or in anyway view and attachment, if I try to save I get one of two messages,

"The Command Failed to Execute" (Word Docs)
or
"There was an error saving one or more of the attachments, Please check your free disk space and try again" (jpeg images)

I have plenty of disk space....

Also, I Use google chrome, I cannot download anything, the error message will always say, "Failed Virus detected" Even if AVG is shut down...

Explorer and Firefox have similar messages....

This occurred right after a windows update and AVG update, I shut down (Disabled AVG) and the problem continues...

Frustrate....Help?

You might want to get that checked out!

Updates... always creates a problem. The easiest (theoretically) is to do a system restore and then try to install each update individually, as one may be a problem. That's the most likely scenario.

Do you have Windows Defender running in addition to your current antivirus?

Thank You! for the reply, the cricket noise is now gone...

I will try those things...

I do not have Defender running at the same time as AVG, I have been very happy with AVG but my equal choice would be Defender as far as free software...

I will report back...

No change in the problems, however I use to have system restore point for at least a month back, it gave no option for an earlier restore point that 5 days ago, I have had this problem for about two weeks.... What happened to the option for earlier dates? 5 days just won't do it....
