Why do I have to keep putting in the KEY every three days or so. I paid for a yr for three PC’s and Avast keeps popping up that I am on the trail addition.

Thanks,
Jim

I would suggest a clean reinstall:

  • Download the latest version of avast, 7.0.1456 see below for download locations and save it to your HDD, somewhere you can find it again (if you didn’t save your last download). Use that when you reinstall.

  • Download the avast! Uninstall Utility, aswClear.exe find it here and save it to your HDD (it has uninstall tools for 5.x, 6.0.x and 7.0.x).

    1. Now uninstall avast! (using add remove programs, if you can’t do that start from the next step), reboot.- 2. run the avast! Uninstall Utility from safe mode, first for 6.x if previously installed and then for 7.0, once complete reboot into normal mode.- 3. install the latest version, reboot.
