updating error for free version

Avast Free Antivirus / Premium Security
1

getting an error when the program tries to update.

It says:

  • your system time/date has changed; fix it and enter the license key again

Yes the date/time has changed, but since this was the free home edition, I don’t have a product key. What do I enter?

Get the free key for the home version from Avast’s website.

If your system time/date changes, it could be time to replace the cmos battery.
