Our primary computer is now 7 yrs old and beginning to show it's age.  We have purchased a new one and will be bringing it home Friday 12/7/2018 and setting it up same day plus that Saturday.  I will want to transfer our Avast protection over to that computer on Friday.  We carry subscriptions for Avast Cleanup Premium and Avast Premier.

Can someone please help me with the procedures for accomplishing this change over, please?  Thank you for your time and support.

Your my.avast.com account should have a record of the licenses that you have, I believe you should be able to reassign those.

Or the email confirmation of payment should have either your activation code or license file.

I would suggest removing your email address in a public and open forum or it could be harvested by a spam bot.

Remove the installations from the old machine/s
Windows 10 Home 64bit/ Acer Aspire F15/ Intel Core i5 7200U 2.5GHz, 8GB DDR4 memory, 256GB SSD, 1TB HDD/ avast! free 24.3.6108 (build 24.3.8975.762) UI 1.0.801/ Firefox, uBlock Origin, uMatrix/ MailWasher Pro/ Avast! Mobile Security
