Can't activate Driver Updater

Avast Driver Updater
1

I do not get on option to enter activation code. The menu only offers settings, help or about options. How do I activate this on my window computer?

First, I’m an Avast user and not an Avast Team member.

Ordinarily you should have received an email with your activation code, I’m assuming that you received this ?

I don’t use the Avast Driver Updater, so I can’t speak from personal experience. However, I wonder if there isn’t a means of doing that via logging on to your Avast Account. id.avast.com

I also dont get an option to enter my activation code. When I click on any of the options for updating the drivers it takes me a another popup that says to renew my subscription. So just goes around in circles. Tried support today for a refund but of course they try and talk you out of it and give you a number to call which I called before to no avail. So, I personally will do what I always do. Give them a crap review for customer service and stop using all their products and take my business elsewhere..

I have the same problem:

I previously had Avast already installed and it expired. At that time I purchased directly from Avast, but these subscriptions expired.

I now purchased and received the new License Keys for Avast Ultimate and also Avast Driver Update from another online shop. I already had an account and app installation from the previous purchase (same e-mail used). In these app installations there is no field for activating by entering the license keys.
Instead and since connected with the same e-mail address the account activated and renewed automatically - but only partially.

The following Avast apps which activated/renewed automatically: Premium Security, Secure Line VPN, Anti Track

But the following Avast apps did NOT activate: Cleanup Premium, Driver Updater – these remain expired

I tried to uninstall and reinstall the Driver Updater – no change. Also on my Avast account page there appears to be no possibility to enter the activation code.

Please can someone tell and come back about how to update Avast Cleanup Premium and Avast Driver Updater.

Thank you!

Resolved.
Within the app I logged out from my account. Then closed - uninstalled the app. Restarted PC and reinstalled from the link provided by the online shop. Then it worked and activated automatically.
