Subscription status

Your subscription can have different statuses. You can find your subscription status in ESET HOME. To add your subscription to your ESET HOME account, see Add a subscription.

If you do not have the ESET HOME account, you can Create a new ESET HOME account.

If the subscription status is other than Active, you will receive an error during activation or a notification in the main program window.

To disable subscription status notifications, open Advanced setup > Notifications > Application statuses. Click Edit next to Application statuses, expand Licensing and deselect the check box next to the notification you want to disable. Disabling the notification does not solve the issue.
