Saving Version 5 (Free Edition) License Key

Avast Free Antivirus / Premium Security
1

I have updated my daughter’s Compaq laptop to version 5 (Free Edition) but her hard disk is failing and needs to be replaced before she loses all of her data. With version 4.8 I was able to view (and copy) the license key but this doesn’t seem possible with version 5. Once the license key has been recorded by the program, it seems to be hidden from the user.

Is there a way to capture the license key so that I can manually enter it once the new hard disk is installed?

Thanks for your help.

You just can request a new Free license in the maintenance tab,

No need for the Old Key, and she will be protected for a year :).

Thanks. I’ll try that.
