I purchased three separate Webroot Secure Anywhere Antivirus 1 Seat 1 Year Subscriptions during last year's Christmas Specials direct from Webroot for $9.99 each and paid via PayPal (a good deal). Each one came with its own separate activation code.
I only installed and activated one of the three so far because I only have one computer. It is a good product and my fairly new docked laptop finally feels unchained from the high resources drag of other AV products I've used over the past 15 years.
My Questions:
1. Unlike Best Buy purchases, may I presume that Webroot direct download purchases are not activated until the activation codes are first entered on the computer and that is when the 365 day clock actually starts for each separate 1-seat subsciption?
2. With 20 days now left on my first subscription, will I lose those 20 days if I enter one of my unused activation codes?
3. Also, if I go past expiration by a day or two, will that change the usual procedure of entering one of my unused codes?
4. I saw no mention of auto-renewal on the email receipts received last year from Webroot ..... How can I be sure I am not enrolled in auto-renewal? I remember receiving an email from Webroot about 10 days ago regarding my subscription expiring soon, but do not recall seeing anything about auto-renewal ..... just a link to renew now (or something to that effect). I deleted it assuming I (hopefully) still have two good unused codes in the hopper ready for action which depends on the answer to my Question 1 above..
5. Do those 3-user subscriptions only come with one code, creating a situation where one must use all 3 licenses at the same time to get the full 365 day benefit from each license?
Thank you,
RRod
