Avast Free Anti-Virus Scan Quik Scan and Full Scan

With the most recent avast free anti virus update - I have had to uninstall and reinstall the software a couple of times; plus I did have avast cleanup and it was not working on my windows 7 home premium os; so I uninstalled that.

Today Avast ran a quick scan after I reinstalled the free version (custom install) (did not install clean up) and everything was fine. I ran another scan this evening and it gave me error messages stating some files could not be accessed and they have been different each time I ran the first scan and this last scan!?

I did a boot scan earlier today and there was no infection; plus I ran my malwarebytes and it showed 0 infections; so I would just like to know why avast keeps showing different files that can’t be accessed? Every since the latest update I have had noting but major issues! Any help would be appreciated!

How do I handle files that avast! can’t scan? https://blog.avast.com/2014/02/28/how-do-i-handle-files-that-avast-cant-scan/

short story is that it is nothing to worry about, it is normal and happen to all AV, but all AV does not show it in the log / scan result

if you tell us what files and location … full file path / screenshot then we may be able to tell you what they are
