I came home to an Avast message that it nees to restart.  I did.  Avast no longer worked.  I could not open the UI, it displayed a message that said Loading, this won't take long but never loads.

It would not uninstall.  Instead is says that setup is already running.  An Avast tech attempted a repair.  That failed.  Finally, I uninstalled using Avast Clear.

Attempts to reinstall failed.

Here is the log:
