        Download the avast installer and run it. You will be prompted to uninstall, do so then reinstall it fresh. http://filehippo.com/download_avast_antivirus/

        Let me know when you get it running.

          Reset Web Settings & Default Security Settings

          Open IE and then select Internet Options, then the Advanced Tab and then the Reset button under Reset Internet Explorer Settings.

          ----------

          Download to your desktop FixPolicies.exe, a self-extracting ZIP archive from HERE.

          Double-click FixPolicies.exe.
          Click the Install button on the bottom toolbar of the box that will open.
          The program will create a new Folder called FixPolicies.
          Double-click to Open the new Folder, and then double-click the file within: Fix_Policies.cmd
          A black box will briefly appear and then close.
          Restart the computer so the changes can take effect.

          How about now?

              It was the same file is why it failed the second time.

              Update MalwareBytes and run a Quick Scan then post the log when complete.
