Generally, it's recommended to only have one "active" scanning program in place at a time. So for example, with Avast, you can have our nextgen protection running and actively protecting you, with Defender available for supplementary on-demand scans if you wish. Installing Avast should disable Windows Defender automatically, and Windows should report that "you are using Avast antivirus" or similar
