Right click the Avast icon - select about Avast - Bottom of the dialogue is a licence key button press that then copy and paste the licence key from your e-mail into the box .

avast! icon missing - As a temporary measure you can create a desktop shortcut for this file C:\Program Files\Alwil Software\Avast4\ashDisp.exe (the avast icon and interface to the providers).  Right click on the file and select Send To, Desktop (create shortcut).
What other security based software do you have that might block new startup entries, e.g. Spybot S&D (TeaTimer), AdAware (AdWatch), SpySweeper, Spyware Doctor (StartUpGuard), PrevX, WinPatrol, ProcessGuard, etc. ?

Once you have the shortcut double click it and you will have the avast icon, you should then be able to enter the registration key, whilst we try to resolve why the icon was missing. Insert Registration Key - Video

Glad we could help, welcome to the forums.

If you only created the shortcut and double clicked it to get the icons back, once you reboot they will be gone again. If that is correct please answer the question I asked.
