Avast Licence

One of my frds frd gave me an Avast Internet Security key of 1 year.
He said its genuine & got from his cousin.

The key is something like avastlic.
When I opened it with notepad, it has quite a few things written in it.

I installed AIS trial & activated with the key & was successful.
But then I uninstalled AIS as dont know if the key is really legit or not coz mostly I have seen keys like serial nos & this Avast key is different.

Can anyone show me how the Avast key looks like & if possible how it looks like opened in notepad?

If it is a avastlic file then it should be genuine, as i think they are only sendt in mail from avast after you pay

YOU could provide a Screen Shot of what your Avastlic looks like in Notepad. ???

I was trying to find out screenshot of Avast key & if possible opened in notepad or something but couldn’t.

I have noticed on torrent websites uploads like Avast 2, 3 50, etc… years licence.
I downloaded a 2 years AIS lic from torrent to check how does it look like.
And it looks the same as the key I have i.e opened in the notepad both keys looks same with little difference like email, key no, code, etc…
So may be the key I have is really legit.

The thing is I thought if the key is not legit then Avast may not perform correctly.
Though I had checked the realtime protection with harmless samples & was working properly.
All the other things like settings changed, features enabled/disabled, etc were also working fine.

This torrent key also looks like the real Avast key.
I guess will check it activating under shadow defender. Checking activation under shadow defender will not harm the system in any way, right?

You can ask avast if it is valid https://support.avast.com

OK.
If I am going to use the key then I will contact Avast.

Thanxx for the info & support.
