I also still have the problem of invisibility of Menus.
So many programs that do not have a virus are disabled from avast but I can not reenable them as I can not see the menus.
Avast does not care about this as we seem to be the only 2 persons with that problem.
May be the reason is incompatibility with nvidia graphic cards !?
Have you tried an avast Repair ?
Try a repair of avast:
Vista, win7 or later - Control Panel, Programs & Features, uninstall a program, select ‘avast! Anti-Virus,’ click the Uninstall/Change and select Repair, click next and follow.
You may need to reboot after the repair.
If that doesn’t work try, a clean reinstall.
Not sure what OS you may be using, I have winXP, Win7 and this win10 labtop, and all display the avastUI > Settings window correctly.
I don’t know if the avastclear versions that you used are for a specific avast version, but I would suggest downloading the one from this location http://files.avast.com/iavs9x/avastclear.exe, this location should contain the most current version.
That Version is (filecompare) identical with mine but the problem is a problem of the PC (suppose graphics not supported by avast) but no question of reinstalling.
May be a change of the Java scripts in the \resources directory would help (like “SettingsComponents.js” for settings maybe) but I am no expert in this.
It definitively does not help reinstalling as it never worked since I use Windows 7 or Windows 10 (not even after first Installation) (so changing the javascripts for the Settings might be the only thing that could help).
One main problem is, that I also can not read the small pop up virus warning windows on the right down of the screen, so I can not assign homemade programs to be treated not like a virus and so many programs do not run any more on my pc
Just installed the newest nvidia driver I fond (all my Desktopicons positions chnaged after setting lower resolution by nvidia fist ) but still the same result.
Anyway I would wonder if avast-developers did program avast for any pc except my nvidia as I did run hundreds of applications and never had a display / menu - viewing Problem with other programs.
That wa the solution ! Avast needs running fontdrvhost.exe !!
As I want few tasks running on my system I normally kill it per batch on startup.
I did copy “C:\ProgramData\AVAST Software\Avats\Fonts” to “C:\windows\fonts” but running fontdrvhost is still necessary (does anyone know how to bypass fontdrvhost?)
