All shields are turned off!

I just installed Webroot SecureAnywhere Mobile on my Galaxy S5 after having done the same for my new Surface Pro3.  I keep seeing "You may be at Risk" because my Install Shield, File System Shield, and Execution Shield is turned off.  It won't let me turn them on despite clicking the "Fix This Now" button for each item.  Not sure what to do about this.  I'm about to power down my device, wipe my cache, and reboot.  I'll see if that fixes it but don't understand why the "Fix This Now" button isn't working.  Any help would be appreciated.

Well, the uninstall/reinstall worked.  Didn't take very long either.  Thanks for your help!

Hi!
 
I know you probably don't want to hear this but I think if you uninstall/reinstall that this woud be fixed. Have you cleared your caches? Do that after you uninstall/clear cache/reboot and then reinstall WSA again and let me know what happens. Are you up for that?
Thanks for the reply Sherry! That's the weird thing...they're all checked minus "Unknown Sources Shield" which I don't want turned on.  If they're all checked why is it telling me I may be at risk?!?

Hello and Welcome to the Community Forum,
 
Would you please open up WSA on your device and Open Security at the bottom on the left/Antivirus/ Shields/and look to see if you have all green checks in the boxes?
