OK.Wait for fix or go back to Avast 18.8.2356(Offline installers:

http://files.avast.com/iavs9x/avast_internet_security_setup_offline.exe

http://files.avast.com/iavs9x/avast_premier_antivirus_setup_offline.exe) for some time until fix is live..(disconnect Internet& install Avast V. 18.8.2356 and put program update to manual update.) Do you use online install or off-line install(for v.19.1)?

I have the same problem, but for me it just started on a computer that had already been running Avast Free without any issues.  Not sure when it started but I noticed it in the past week.  Tried repair, re-install, etc, but it still doesn't open.
