CHANGE WINDOWS AND REINSTALL AVAST  :'(

Ignore the last post completely.

The error 00000005 = Access is denied. For whatever reason access is denied (there are legit reasons), a reinstall of avast wouldn't make a blind bit of difference to the access denied error. Not to mention having already deleted the file manually a reinstall would be a total waste of time.

Personally I keep my nose out of the logs (including the windows event logs) as for the most part the content is verbose and not to helpful to a user, more so for a developer. Only if I experience a problem with avast or hard errors are displayed to the screen do I look in the logs.
 
So are you getting any errors displayed to the screen or other avast problems ?
 
If not I wouldn't worry about this.

Ah! access denied!, .... actually I thought so too.... but it's better to get sure. ( I actually did some google and found it's pretty common error msg, and another one "function setifaceupdatepackages() failed"), but now I'm sure

no no screen popups(errors), and all seems running cool
so I think I can safely ignore those msgs..... 

thank you very much davidR, and let me wish you a very happy new year!

You're welcome.

A Happy and Prosperous New Year to you too.
