It shouldn't be necessary unless you are experiencing problems.  It is meant to be used if you have a problem using the regular Control Panel > Programs & Features > Avast - Uninstall function.

Windows 10 Home 64bit/ Acer Aspire F15/ Intel Core i5 7200U 2.5GHz, 8GB DDR4 memory, 256GB SSD, 1TB HDD/ avast! free 24.3.6108 (build 24.3.8975.762) UI 1.0.801/ Firefox, uBlock Origin, uMatrix/ MailWasher Pro/ Avast! Mobile Security

If you're re-installing Avast, avastclear shouldn't be needed. If you're having a problem or intend to install
another AV, by all means, use the Avast removal tool.
