there nothing to do and perhaps Avast will correct it on newer releases,But for the time being I have found a solution,
just install an old version 11.2.2261 (i use this) and do not update program,just update virus definition,ii works.I am sticking to Avast,it`s for sure.
Have you tried this ???
Repair Avast:
Control Panel> Program and Features (Add/remove program)>Select Avast> Select Repair. Reboot when completed

If Repair doesn’t fix the problem, try the following:
Clean Install of Avast:
