Can any windows 10 user confirm that avast is performing as expected or there are issues?

If not fully stable, my only options are WD, Avira or Webroot.

Thanks

I do not get any issues for now on Windows 10 with Avast Premier (Clean install of Avast)

Pff, give up. I still need to disable HTTPS scanning to have it fully functional.
