Corruption here could be due to a different packaging method of that files.
Most of them belong to the system restore (System Volume Information), so restore points couldn't being able to be scanned.
There isn't that much to be worried with. Archive files are 'inert' by their nature, i.e., can't harm your computer, the malware (if any) should be unpackaged before and then the antivirus will do its job.

Be used to avast forums speed ;)

Yes, the ones related to restore points.

Or what do you advice ?
For the other files? Don't worry :)

And also what do you mean by "different packaging method of files?
Files are packaged (zip, cab, arj...) and avast needs to unpack them to scan. If avast scanner can't unpack, files aren't scanned, stay there silently, won't harm your computer. But an error message is displayed in the report (by default, you can remove this and be reported only if infected files were found).

And how do you "unpackaged" malware ?
It's a supposition... If there is a malware inside of the archive file it will be detected when the original program unpacks it...

If we know the answer... there is place to share knowledge from other products and technologies.
