Barry -- what happens if you disable Avast? Do you still have issues?
Is Windows Defender blocking you? What happens if you turn them both
off? Can you download then? I gotta believe that between the two of
them -- they are what is blocking you. If you turn them both off and
you are still being blocked -- then there is something else in you way
-- server-side, etc. Is you computer attached to a specific network
server that is blocking? See what I am driving at -- there are only
certain things that can block you from downloading a file -- anti-virus,
windows defender, a firewall rule, something in your router, etc. If
each one of those allows it -- you should be ok . If one of them is
denying you access -- you just need to find which one it is.

Subject [GNC] Warning Chat GPT
As some of you know my PC, has refused to allow me to download an updated
version of GNU, for reasons unknown, even on here.
As a desperation move it being year-end and the fisc will be looking to be
paid, I reverted to Chat GPT to see if I could find a solution.
After THREE days of interaction with Chat, I got NOWHERE, except to be
informed that my MS on Windows 11 was now in a state where I could only reset
it and lose everything and install a new version.
WARNING, that isn't true, today I started the PC and all is as it was, BUT, I
will back up everything, just in case.
I still have the issues with downloading an update of GNU......
