    There is another way through which you can make the issue to be sorted. All you need to do is to remove the avast pack that is been installed. Get the latest pack of the Avast uninstall program and then reboot the system. After that perform the action and then install the avast latest pack of the same. This may then help you in making the issue to work out well.

    It may be that the application is not able to support to the system that you are working with. It is necessary that you carry out the function well by looking out for the tools that may hep in making the application to process or work well. So do look out for the thing. Try to install the tool under compatibility mode. This may then allow the application to support.

    Try to run the system under safe mode option and then try to look out for the application to get started. It may also be that the application may have gone corrupt and is not able to respond because of the same reason. Now all you need to do is to remove the application and then install the fresh new copy of the same. This my help.
