What program are you trying to uninstall (and why, is it required) ?
There really shouldn't be a need to do that to uninstall a program.

Right click the avast tray icon, avast! shields control, Disable fr 10 minutes, etc.
But I can't emphasise enough that this 'shouldn't' be required.
Windows 10 Home 64bit/ Acer Aspire F15/ Intel Core i5 7200U 2.5GHz, 8GB DDR4 memory, 256GB SSD, 1TB HDD/ avast! free 24.2.6105 (build 24.2.8918.824) UI 1.0.799/ Firefox, uBlock Origin, uMatrix/ MailWasher Pro/ Avast! Mobile Security
