License code needed for free Mac version?

[P15-D24]

New install on El Cap. Did the registration and account signup, got an emailed license code. But how do I activate it.
The instructions in the email seem to be for Windows.

1. Highlight the license key above, then right-click it and select "Copy".
2. Open your avast! Free Antivirus controls and select the "Settings" tab.
3. Next, click the "Registration" tab.
4. Click the arrow next to "Offline registration" to expand this option.
5. Click the "Insert the license key" button.
6. Right-click in the empty Registration box and select "Paste".
7. Click "OK" – your license key is now inserted and your avast! antivirus software can now be used free of charge for a further 12 months.



Is a license key even needed of the free mac version?

There is no registration in Avast Mac Security. It has been only in version 7.x that is not support any more. The current version is 11.4.

Regarding a license, free version doesn't require any. Avast Business Security uses it internally but it should be transparent to users. There exists also a third version allowing usage in business environment and working with a classical license but it can be bought only through resellers.
