Actually, I didn't check what version I was on when this issue started to begin with, all I know is after the issue popped up I rebooted my PC multiple times and tried scanning for updates, then I got an update which now when I check is indeed 11.1.42.0.
For whatever reason once it started updating to what I assume was 11.1.42.0. it got stuck updating forever so I just rebooted my PC again, and now suddenly I could select to not allow this Eset live grid thing, and the update completed as well..
I don't know why it works for me and what made it to work really, but no issues now for me and everything works as it should!
I am usually against downloading new software versions early on, and I usually just wait a few days atleast, but this one time when I feel like I can trust a company is the one time I get burned.. Never again..
Just glad all seems to work now for me, hopefully they'll sort this all out for the rest as well.
