When I boot avast starts disabled with a red flag, and it doesen’t launch the main inteface of avast. When the interface comes up, it shows an error message “this is embarassing” etc, and after I click on “restart” Avast starts to behave normal. Windows update seems to have stuck the antimalware updates. No more sympthoms as I write this entry, but very suspicious ones. I attach Malwarebytes log (with no detections) and FRST logs. In ran FRST after avast restart, so it shows up enabled. Many thanks in advance.
Logs are clean. Can you try to reinstall Avast?

That seems to work. Avast is doing fine so far. The stuck windows updates stopped showing. This may be not related to malware after all. Thank you again.
You’re welcome. Happy to help.
