Aloha Gaia, I just renamed Blender folder and now it seems to work!

This is probably an error in the Addon itself. However, please note that
Avastar is a third party Addon that has nothing to Do with Blender development.

Please check here for how to get help:

Please do not use the Blender Reporter for Avastar related issues! I already posted the support page link in my previous comment.

Now about the problem: It is an issue with the Addon Installer that shows up when you update from an older version of the Addon. The only thing that you need to do is restart Blender after you updated the Addon. Then all is well. I mentioned that also in the news of our Blog at
