Hi
I have a paid subscription for AVG Internet Security and after discovering that the product on my computer had reverted to the free version, I pasted in my activation code directly from my account and received the following message:
“Incorrect code. Please try again”
After several attempts with the same result, I signed out of my product and signed back in and still received the same message. I then uninstalled and reinstalled AVG on my computer. Once AVG had been reinstalled, I pasted in my activation code to activate my subscription and received the error message:
“Sorry, something went wrong”
Is it possible to resolve this issue?
Hi Abdul
Unfortunately adjusting the DNS settings did not work. Following the instructions in the article, I changed the DNS settings, yet now when I paste in the authentication code, I have the message:
"Incorrect code. Please try again."
