AVASTLIC is a file extension used by Avast software to activate licenses. Double clicking an AVASTLIC file will import the license into Avast, if the software is already installed. The file is usually sent by Avast when a product is purchased.
After installing the license, users can view subscription details by going to Maintenance > Subscription in Avast. AVASTLIC files are stored in the license folder under the Avast installation directory.
These license files contain keys that unlock paid features and ensure full access. AVASTLIC files can be opened on any operating system, but not all systems support them properly. Avast Pro Antivirus and Avast Internet Security on Windows are able to open AVASTLIC files by default.
If AVASTLIC is not already associated with Avast, you can manually edit the Windows Registry HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT keys or go to Folder Options > File Types, scroll to AVASTLIC extension, and select Avast to open this file type. The second method is easier and recommended.
There is no conversion needed for AVASTLIC files. They store license data for Avast in a proprietary format. Other programs like File Viewer Plus can open over 400 file types but not manipulate Avast licenses. Overall AVASTLIC files serve the specific purpose of activating Avast software.
