Why is Avast blocking Rec Room?
Actually, I had the same issue and adding Rec Room to the exceptions didn't cut it for me. I had to completely uninstall Avast and switch to a different antivirus. Haven't had a problem since. Maybe it's time to look at how Avast treats games and not just blame the game?

It's just a false positive, folks. Rec Room is 100% legit and does not steal your data or harm your device. Add it to your list of exceptions in Avast, and you'll be golden.
It's because Avast is overprotective, and it doesn't play nice with games sometimes. Just add Rec Room to the exceptions list, and it should work fine. You won't have to get rid of Avast altogether.
Avast might be blocking Rec Room because it sees it as an unknown or untrusted application. Since Rec Room involves a lot of real-time online interactions and downloads from various creators, Avast could flag it by mistake, seeing these behaviors as potentially harmful. The best workaround is to add Rec Room to your Avast exceptions list. Just open Avast, go to settings, find the Exceptions section, and add Rec Room to ensure it's not wrongly identified as a threat.
