Where are my scan logs in the free version.  I have searchrd for txt and log files to no avail.....I just had to do a boot time scan and noticed that several files were corrupt etc.  I need to read this log file to see what is going on.

You won't see any information in the Scan History as the Boot Time scan isn't covered, for a pretty good reason the boot time scan is running before any avastUI elements are up and running.

The file name from memory is aswboot.txt I can't recall its exact location but I believe it is either in the C:\ProgramData\AVAST Software\Avast\report or C:\ProgramData\AVAST Software\Avast\log folder.

nope, it is there. and i searched my computer for that name and nothing.........I do know, in older versions the boot time scan was loged and you could look at it.  I seen part of the screen as it was checking, and there are things I need to fix, that it did not.  And I want to know what it found and fixed...................

Again, I do not have a screen that looks like that.  I have no scan settings, etc.
here are two more shots of my screen one just after starting the app and the other after selecting Scan at the top..
