Hi Asyn,
Before seeing your reply, I logged into 'MyAvast' using the surplus account's email address. By entering myprofile, I was able to delete the account but, from your reply, it seems that my Avast Community Forum part of the surplus account is still in place. So what is the next step to allow you to complete the removal? For example, will I need to re-register the account or can you remove the forum aspect without the MyAvast registration?
Thanks for your continuing help - I'm sorry for being a nuisance by getting into this muddle. Cheers.
