Some file in avast antivirus is not letting win11 bootup
This first startup repair page my dumb brain said to get help from gpt : i did Went to command prompt system32 bootrec /fixmbr bootrec /fixboot
But fixboot command was unsuccessful like access denied Then gpt said copy boot files to the efi partition Then i did One of the command was format z: /fs:fat32 (z is the efi partition letter) It asked to enter current label for drive z Then i asked gpt it said not to format bootfiles Instead try bcdboot C:\Windows /s Z: /f UEFI I did then the 2nd page showed up after exiting and restarting
Sonething wrong with the avast antivirus file now i can not go to recovery environment it's kind of in loop f8 startup settings also not working
Only way i think is here is boot up a pendrive and boot it from the uefi settings and uninstall avast to see if there any other issues
I can feel i did something wrong once i tried gpt other than that what did i do wrong C:\WINDOWS\System32\Logfiles\Srt\SrtTrail.txt
Windows\system32\drivers\aswVmm.sys

It’s often easier and safer to use the automatic repair options from Windows recovery or create a clean install if repairs fail.
If unable to boot, consider using a tool like Revo Uninstaller from a bootable environment, or manually delete Avast files from C:\Program Files\Avast after booting from an external media.
