Avast Free Expires On Offline PC - How Do I Activate??

Hi

Avast free has expired on 2 of my pcs that do not go online but i do use them for file management.

How do i activate this???

makes no sense when there are offline updates available but the antivirus becomes useless cos i need to take a machine onto the internet to activate it?

If its free then it should be free.

Registration is history, see: https://www.avast.com/registration-free-antivirus

true, by my interface has gone all red saying i need to activate, and this is a very recent version. i dont recall exactly what it said, i can get a screenshot as soon as i get home, but it does ask for activation

See: https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=203940.msg1401279#msg1401279

i have a version that is just over a month old, hence the need for activation, i think its best if i post a screenshot of version number and the screen that is asking for activation.

will post this evening

anyone???

Can’t you download the “offline version”, copy to flash drive and install on your PCs?

that is a screen shot from the offline version

Download the current offline installer directly from here:

already tried the newest installer bob3160, no change.

Anyway, thanks for all the help, i am switching to avira.
