Need a new key

I just came back after a week of being away, logged on to my computer, and found that Avast informs me I need a new “key.”

I’ve used AVAST for a long time now and wonder why I’m now being prompted to enter a new key - when I don’t even HAVE a new key to enter.

Can someone shed light on this and advise how I get a new key? I’ve written to Tech Support, but not certain when I will receive a response. I guess until then, my computer is unprotected.

Thanks to anyone who can help on this.
