How to install Webroot
Hi, I just bought the $49.99 Webroot Secure Anywhere at BestBuy for my Laptop Lenovo Yoga 2 11 inch but this Laptop does not have CD ROM. How do I install it?
Directions for digital download are found inside the case that came with the Webroot Disk.
Before you install any anti-virus type program, it might be a good idea to make sure you don't have another program already on the machine. If you have Webroot already showing up on your computer, you can go from there. But NOTE: If you see Norton or McAfee or another anti-virus type program, you want to uninstall it AND restart your computer before installing another anti-virus type program. These programs can cause conflicts with each other and cost you your sanity down the road. It's like having two relatives arguing at the reception! Somebody's going to get upstaged!
Now, for a clean Webroot install without a CD-ROM:
Use the "Install via Download" option. ( Make this your first trip to the internet before doing lots of web-surfing.)
Visit the download site at www.webroot.com/geeksquaddownload . Click the appropriate Download Now button for your device platform (yours appears to be PC Windows).
Download the SecureAnywhere installer to your PC. Note where the file is saved.
Locate and double-click the installer to start the installation.
When prompted, enter your keycode. It is on the Webroot box. It is also on your BestBuy receipt if you look closely under the Software section on it and find your Webroot purchase.
Follow any on-screen prompts as they appear until installation is complete.
Welcome to Webroot!
