Dec 21, 2018 - You probably already know that Avast Free Antivirus 2019 is totally free and you don’t have to pay a cent to be protected. It’s called activation for a license key (activation code) or serial key, and it’s very simple. Activate Your Avast and Get Your Free License Key.

You probably already know that Avast Free Antivirus 2019 is totally free and you don’t have to pay a cent to be protected. At least if you’re using it in your household for non-commercial activities.

However, there is one thing you have to do within the first 30 days and each year after. Even though you will get the license only for 1 year, you can get a new one when it expires. So you can basically keep using Avast for free forever.

It’s called activation for a license key (activation code) or serial key, and it’s very simple. It also works in any older version like Avast 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014, 8, 7, 6, 5 or v4.8. In the past, Avast was also using license files which were generated for a specific e-mail address. License files are luckily not used anymore and the only thing you need is a simple 28-character long unique code.

WARNING We strongly do not recommend using any keygen or crack you may find on the Internet. Most of them are full of malware.

If you like videos, there is a fantastic commented video manual on this page, which explains the whole activation process in a few seconds. And don’t worry if you are not able to retrieve your own license key, we have got one for you at the end of this tutorial.

Activate Your Avast and Get Your Free License Key (Activation Code)

Step 1 (out of 4) – Open Avast and Start the Activation

Start by opening your Avast user interface. You can do this in many ways:
