I attempted to modify registry settings as shown in tutorials, but it didn’t work. Avast is really bothersome now.

I also attempted scanning using alternative tools. Other programs were identified as well.

I only use Avast, that's a great choice. No other programs are installed at all.

You might be dealing with a hidden RAT on your system (Remote Access Trojan). It's typical for malware to hide within svchost processes, making them hard to detect. I’d suggest securing all crucial files, clearing your Windows setup, and proceeding with caution. That’s the most straightforward approach I see.
