Cannot Reactivate Avast Internet Security
« on: February 08, 2018, 10:20:38 PM »
Look guys, I've gone through all the directions to reactivate my license to no avail, I'm done.  Please someone help me reactivate my license.

I got it through the Incentive Program, had a one year, and then accumulated enough to get the license for three years, or two I forget.  No matter what I do it will not activate, please help.

Another thing, can't find my old Threads concerning this and one other thing, where do I access old posts?  I thought I knew how to  find these things but don't see anywhere that I can access those old Threads?

@Pondus, Thanks Pondus!  Perhaps I don't come here enough, but it is not very intuitive IMO.

Still can't get my Avast Incentives Re Activation fixed.  Tried everything, inserted the Code, tried the File, nothing?  It is here.

I'll try get some attention to this tomorrow from the Avast team since it's currently 10pm in Europe, however, as far as I am aware, the recommendation program has long expired and there may be a chance those licences won't be able to activate again but I'm just assuming that at this point.

Thanks very much! :)

Is appears to be alive and working for the most part.  I re-downloaded the Activation File again today, but it did not work.  I also used the Activation Code that appears in the Activation Window...it worked, and said "you are activated now" or something to that effect with a little check mark...but still shows Unactivated with a Red X on the Avast Icone in Task Bar.  I reboot, Updated Avast.

Prior to this I uninstalled via Safe Mode and a few other things to no avail.

You've probably seen this, my old post I made on another pc that I was struggling with getting to the original Thread.

Then it's time to wait for Avast to reply to your request for help.
