I have installed Altair in my laptop. But my laptop is not not working now. I have replaced my laptop. Trying to install Altair. Error says 'License is already activated in different hostID. Possible to deactivate from the initial laptop?
Hi @KSD
Your license key has been deactivated in Altair One, and you can now reactivate your student license using the same key.
Kindly note, The Altair Free Student Edition license is valid for use on only one device, it cannot be shared or activated on multiple machines at the same time AND 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
