Novice2,

Are you using Avast Home Edition?

If you are using Avast Home Edition, then visit here to obtain a new license key: http://www.avast.com/i_kat_207.php?lang=ENG

“avast! 4 Home Edition is the 60 days demo after installation. You will obtain FREE license key by E-mail after the registration. The license key is valid for 1 year. After that you are re-register to obtain new license key.”

After you have filled out the form and have received the e-mail from Avast do the following: Copy the License Key, Right-click the Avast icon in the system tray, go to ‘About avast!..’, click on the License Key button, and paste the license key.

I hope that helps.

Sincerely,

Thanks! I am using the free home edition. Do I have to put in new settings? My grandson set it up for me and he isn’t here. I ran a scan today and it worked. I will get a new lic. Key.
Thanks Novice 2

Novice2,

Your welcome. I believe your settings will be retained.

I think you would only need to put in new settings if you had uninstalled Avast Home and then reinstalled Avast Home.

I am glad I could help you out.

You don’t need to reinstall avast! or put new settings, just put the new registration key and your done.
