Hi,

The “in use by another process” ones are definitely normal, plus there should be just one “access denied” one tied in to the system. Possible a few more of the latter in your case, since you appear to be using multiple drives and/or partitions, I don;t know if that affects things.

However I don’t get the reinstall files excluded – I wonder if that has something to do with the change in admin accounts. I suspect that even though you still have admin rights, the system and/or avast now sees you as a “different user”.

If you’re willing to put in the time and effort (and it’s not that bad, nothing at all like NAV), what would happen if you did a full and complete uninstall of avast and then re-installed it as the new admin?

Just some rambling thoughts, but who knows? :wink:

Best,
Mike
