I can't deactivate my student license because I formatted my PC, and now I need to activate it, but it tells me it's activated on another PC.

Hi @DiegoAlonso

Your previous license key activation is now deactivated in Altair one, you can now reactivate the student license with the same license key.

Deactivation and reactivation feature is only if a computer breaks down or reformatted and is only allowed a few times per user preprogrammed into the system.

You can deactivate the license from one machine and reactivate in another by yourself if you have access to both machines as per –
