You say that the “insert licence number did not work,” why ?
As I mentioned in my last post, I believe this should be looking for where you saved the license.avastlic ‘file’ and wouldn’t work. It opens up a small windows explorer like window to navigate to where the license.avastlic file was saved.
So the option to try entering the license number would be the ‘Insert activation code.’ Since I use the avast free version I can’t speak from experience, you might want to check out this F.A.Q. http://www.avast.com/faq.php?article=AVKB7#articleContent and scroll down to the “Alternative method for inserting the license file into avast! Internet Security 2014” section.
