Why would an earlier version of NVDA install and
not this version? It is really not logical to place bloatware or Avast,
which is likely not even being used and which I have never heard blocks NVDA
from being installed as likely reasons. It's as though you have drawn up a
list of programs you don't like and said, I don't like them so they are likely
the problem.
Is it possible that some program is preventing the
installation? Of course, all sorts of things are possible but the way to
proceed is to get someone who has proper technical knowledge to look at whatever
relevant logs should be looked at and not just categorically blame this or that
program or broad meaningless class (bloatware) of program.

If this is the first time you have installed nvda and its a new
machine. My
main finger of blame is that it needs a bloatware clean down
session if not
a total reinstall.
Avast is almost like a virus and
seems to be on every large store purchased
machine just like Norton used to
be, indeed some manufacturers fit it.
There are also often free
trial versions of all sorts of rubbish
installed.
