Your current subscription for Trend Micro Internet Security protects up to three (3) different computers. The first computer you install the program on is considered the primary one, while installations on other computers are considered secondary.

Solution

To activate your Trend Micro Internet Security subscription when adding a second or third computer, please do the following:

 

1.

Go to the Activate Now window.
