hello thecow275 since you are a member of microsoft insider you should know better. Avast 2014 and Avast 2015 are  NOT COMPATIBLE with Windows 10 yet. Windows 10 is now at Technology Preview stage where IT pro and techs test it out and microsoft test it out and gets feedback from it pros and techs and where there will be tons of tons of bugs to be discovered and fixed.

So does this mean that any computer running Windows 10 and uses Avast software just has to wait until the update is available?

No need to wait. I've been running avast v2016 and Win10 ever since both were released.
So have many others. Win10 and avast are compatible.  8)

So maybe I need to uninstall and re-install because I am currently receiving the "Unable to start firewall" error.  I have tried the repair and reboot steps and still getting the error.

Is any previous used AV removed using that vendors removal tool?
