Precautions during an install webroot on a new computer

We already discussed to peel the keycode gently to avoid complexity. Except it, there is one more thing which you need to take care of. 

Check your system/ Laptop/ Macbook, if it already has an antivirus. In this case, you need to remove that preinstalled antivirus before starting with the Webroot Securanywhere install. Here one more thing we would like to say that if you are removing antivirus from your computer/ laptop then you need to restart it once to completely remove the old product. After doing all this you can actually start a fresh installation of Webroot.

Webroot Secureanywhere keycode or Webroot keycode 

A Webroot keycode is 20 characters alphanumeric code which is used to activate a Webroot license. This is the code which is your license actually. If you have it then you can download your Webroot anytime online. 

The keycode contains numbers and alphabets mix-up. You can find this keycode on the back of a retail card which you got from an offline store like geek squad, office depot. In case of an online purchase you will this keycode on your email associated with the store or you can find the key code inside your store account.

Precautions for a Webroot retail card - 

If you have a Webroot retail card then you need to peel or scratch the back of the card to get the keycode. Most noteworthy this here is you need to scratch the place with key code very gently otherwise the keycode characters may get a scratch and then your installation will get jeopardy.

When you will click “my account” a new page will open there you will find a login option, as well as a, create account option.

• Go to the create account option fill the email, password, security code, and security question on that form.
