How to I delete an aVast account?
« on: October 30, 2015, 05:34:39 PM »
The registration process won't let me use assign a new email address to my account. It reports that it is already in use.

I know the reason, I just don't know the cure!

To explain this better .. let's say my OLD email is abc@mymail.com and the NEW email address is 123@mymail.com

REASON:
I failed to put the old registration code & email into my laptop computer when I first installed aVast on it.  So now I have 2 separate accounts.

Computer #1 (Desktop) - abc@mymail.com
Computer #2 (Laptop) - 123@mymail.com

HOW can I delete the one that I don't use?  Help!

Log on to the redundant account and delete the Device linked to it.

Now open the avastUI of this device with the redundant email and connect it to the other account.

Whilst this doesn't remove the reduntant account (not sure there is a user related way to do that).
