The file that Microsoft Update checks (avastui.exe) can be also saved by user as a backup of their C: drive or for similar reasons.

If you are admin/geek type and want to find out the root cause of the block, you can try to follow https://www.reddit.com/r/windows/comments/cqyb9e/my_pc_says_i_need_to_remove_avast_to_get_the_may/ex1yp5g/

Can't Avast come up with an exe that totally removes all traces of Avast if the intention is to totally remove Avast?
