Unable to Deactivate Altair Inspire Student License (Formatted PC)

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Dear Altair Support Team,

I am a student user of Altair Inspire. I recently formatted my old computer and was unaware that I needed to deactivate my student license key before doing so. As a result, I am now unable to reactivate my license on my new computer.

Could you please assist me in resolving this issue and reactivating my Altair Inspire student license?

Thank you for your time and assistance.

Sincerely,

Hi @ugr

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 - https://community.altair.com/discussion/34280/altair-student-edition-deactivate-from-one-computer-to-activate-in-another-in-the-rare-case-a-computer-is-lost-or-malfunctional#latest

Thanks!
