How To Get Replacement Registration Code for AVS Video Tools (AVS Video Converter)

This week I did a hard drive upgrade on my laptop and afterwards, my registration on some of my programs had to be re-registered.

This included all of my adobe products and my favorite video conversion tool, AVS Video Converter known today as AVS Video Tools.

They still have the free trial download!

If you happen to lose track of your registration number (AVG antivirus made me lose mine (explanation below)) you can request a new one via the email address you used to order the product.

Simply go to the address above and it will walk you through the short process to get your registration code sent yet again.

AVG Antiviru Hid My Registration Code

For some reason the registration code is sent in an html  or image format that AVG antivirus dislikes.

So the email with the registration number becomes invisible when AVG is running on your inbox when the message comes in.  I had to turn the program off, then re-request the registration through a new email so that I could see it and use the registration number.

I found a tip that pointed me in the right direction here.  I still had to figure out how to solve my particular problem, but this confirmed my suspicion that my antivirus software was the possible culprit.

All I could see in my email (that I could read prior to installing AVG antivirus) was the following:

So now that I have that figured out, what I meant to do (convert a quick video over an hour ago) can be finished. 

The good thing is that I was able to use this technical problem as an excuse to avoid looking at bridesmaid gifts with my wife and her friend!
