Can you explain this? Is my computer infected? I uploaded both files to virustotal and they were undetected by all. Also scanned my pc with MalwareBytes, HitManPro and Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool. All said computer was clean. Maybe Avast is wrong?

You can report a suspected FP (File/Website) here: https://www.avast.com/false-positive-file-form.php

Is there a mail adress I can contact Avast about this? Problem is the files are not detected when I scan them, but only when doing a Smart Scan.
