No, it’s not normal.
Which was your old antivirus? How did you uninstall?

I suggest an installation from the scratch:

  1. Uninstall avast from Control Panel first.
  2. Boot.
  3. Download the latest version of Avast Uninstall and use it for complete uninstallation.
  4. Boot.
  5. Install again the latest avast! version.
  6. Boot.
  7. Check and post the results.

after doing those things security center seems happy.
avast is registered in malware part whereas before it wasn’t

cheers

Good… avast is registered in two areas in the Windows Security Center as it is a doubled protection.
