All I see with the latest version is run smart scan. Can I not do a full scan or boot scan with the updated free version?
Hi ritawoolley, welcome to the forum
Open the Avast GUI and choose : Protection - Antivirus … and you can find there all other scanning options.

You can, it is just that the Smart Scan is the quickest, encompassing all of the various scans.
AvastUI > Protection > Antivirus > here you have three options Smart Scan again, Full Scan and Other Scans which has another 4 options.
