Change email address
« on: September 19, 2015, 10:11:57 PM »
Can someone tell me how I can change the email address associated with my account.  You don't make that very easy or intuitive.  If needed, send me a link and specific instructions.  Thanks

Open your my.avast.com Settings > Manage emails - add a new email - this will need to be verified. Once verified, you can then change it to the default email address.

First did you do as suggested and logon to my.avast.com using you browser (that is what the attached image was showing) and not try this from the avastUI Account tab of the avastUI.

The arrow is pointing at it, it has a Portrait style icon if you haven't uploaded an image. There is also the email address to the right of that and that too, click either to expand the options.
