Very simple,

Open Avast.
Go to the left top corner of the window and click the Menu.
Half way down the drop down menu you will see: Schedule Boot-time Scan

Hope this helps... if not write back.
Cheers

Yes.
Start avast! > Right click the skin > Schedule a boot-time scanning.
Select for scanning archives.
Boot.
If infected files are found, it's safer to send them to Chest instead of deleting them.
