Notes:

You will need to run a repair of avast
Go to control panel > programs and features

Then select repair
i get the message “error processing packages,please use full update”
Download the latest version to your desktop from here
Download aswClear from here
Go to Programs and Features > add/remove and uninstall Avast
Reboot back to safe mode and run aswClear (select all versions of Avast ) once for each version, no need to reboot in between
After the last one reboot
Install the updated Avast
