Perform one of the following procedures until you receive the instructions:

Ensure that you typed the email address that was used during the ESET HOME registration or during the activation of the ESET Anti-Theft feature. Due to security reasons, the ESET HOME web interface does not tell you whether the email address you typed into the system is correct.
Check the following:
- Spam or Junk folder in your email account
- Any other secondary inbox folders: Mark info@product.eset.com as a safe address in your email client
- Gmail users: Check your Promotions folder
Re-type the email address again and click Send. Make sure you are typing the email address used during the product purchase.
