Good morning,

 

What you are encountering is a very common occurrence. What it appears is you have the "Geek Squad" flavor of Webroot installed and you are attempting to use a Commercial version of Webroot Key. As you can see they don't play well together. What you need to do is uninstall the Geek SQuad version of Webroot and download and install the appropriate version from here:

Trials

 

After you install enter the new key you purchased and poof, all will work as expected.

 

Any other questions or problems please feel free to come back and we will help as best we can.

Have a great day and a better tomorrow.

Thanks for suggestions. I un-installed Geek Squad version, uploaded / installed new version.  Appears to be installed properly.  Still have the blue - Need to Activate screen - I add the info, get the email link - click it - follow instructions to use the Security Code I provided and it STILL shows the same error code.     Any more suggestions are welcomed.  

 

I noticed that as I started to put the information into the field, a popup says to enter password - this is very confusing
