now when you try to uninstall programs using add/remove from control panel. i don't know what it did but it's not working now, it wont uninstall. it's like avast ate the uninstall exe. the uninstall became corrupted. another thing happen now is i just run google drive and avast blocked said it's a threat, and they "handled" it no further action needed. now google drive won't run it's now corrupted thanks. i don't know wjhy avast has a good review but from my own experience it sucks. i got a lot of programs i had to delete manually because avast keeps eating it

I have uTorrent installed and just updated it.
avast does not flag it as malware, not even as a PUP.

I have google drive and avast does not flag it as malware nor as a PUP.

What makes you believe it was avast that is causing the problems? (screenshot)
What exact version of avast do you have?
What os/sp?
What other security software do you (or did you) have installed?
