Question

Sign in to vote

a few days ago my live one care subcription expired. i bought a live one care product key with the laptop that i last year as a package. now i cant find where i go to renew my subcription for the following year.
usually for the past couple weeks when i would open one care
on the bottom left hand side corner i would notice that my subscription is expiring in few days. n i think it said click here to renew.
however since i was away i forgot to renew it n just came back n noticed that i cannot find the button to press inorder to renew the subscription.
if anyone could please help me out that would be great.
Thank you

you can no longer renew with a key due to OneCare being at end of life. You can use your key be creating a new subscription, which will involve removing your current installed copy and reinstalling, and subscribing with a different LiveiD than your current subscription LiveID.
Note, however, that your subscription was likely renewed for free for 6 months.
