Reinstall Avast after changing from Windows 7 to Windows 10
« on: April 18, 2019, 10:35:34 AM »
I have installed Avast Internet Security on my Windows 7 machine but intend to do a fresh install of Windows 10 soon. Can I reinstall Avast on the Windows 10 system using all the same software credentials? Are there any other concerns I should consider?

If you have special settings in Avast, you might want to save them to a usb drive so you can restore those settings
once you re-install Avast.
