Can i find my avast license file once it is installed?
« on: November 29, 2013, 01:15:29 PM »
I have purchased avast internet security which worked perfectly before i update the program to the latest one. Now it freezes in the system tray and doesn't open or scan for viruses which leaves me unprotected. I read somewhere that I should uninstall it and re-install it but before i do that i need to get my license file and I don't know which Email address i used when i purchased it.
Thanks

tried avast repair and reboot?

controlpanel > ad/remove programs > avast > uninstall/change > repair option ....wait aminute and reboot


if you saved the mail you got from avast ....you find the licens there   ;)

if not get avast to resend it...

Thanks for the reply  :)

I forgot which email my Avast IS is registered to so I can't do the uninstall because i will lose my internet security and will have to use the free one  :'(
