Title: Restore Passwords data - backup email link expired
Post by: Michael100 on April 25, 2022, 05:04:58 PM
Hi, I have manged to install Avast Passwords on a brand new Samsung Galaxy mobile, having had it previously on my old Samsung phone.

I tried to follow the guidance to restore my Passwords data by using the email I previously received from Avast Software with the subject Your backup identity, but when I click "Restore" it says the link has expired.

Could a new link be sent to me?

Thanks

Did you use this email address (ca**inal***@btconnect.com) for Passwords?
