Remove avast completely.
Install avast IS.
Insert the license key.

Where would i find the licence key/validation code?

I did not take a screenshot of my licence key/validation code as i thought the shiny 'Insert licence key/validation code' button would do the job.

As i had to go to work just after paying for IS i now can't remember if it was a licence key or validation code that popped up...

License key/activation code is send to you by email.

You can also find it in your account > https://my.avast.com
or you can get it through > https://www.avast.com/resend-license-paid.php

I found it, it went to another email account for some reason.

Thanks for your help Eddy!
