No.
Yes.
Windows Defender is disabled.
Perform a repair of avast and see if it solves the problem.
Repair Avast:
- Control Panel → Add/Remove programs → Avast
- Click on ‘Repair’.
- Follow instructions.
- Reboot.

You cant remove Defender as it’s part of the OS but you can disable it though a reboot after running the repair should fix it.
Thank you for help. Now is OK.
You’re welcome.
