0 Art V Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 (edited) You are allowed two installs, so if you don't have it installed on a 2nd computer yet you could install it on the other computer and activate it. If you expect to install it on a 2nd computer in the future in addition to your new main computer then you may want to contact Vectorworks support to deactivate the current installed license. Contacting Vectorworks is only needed to deactivate a license, once that is done you should normally be able to activate it online as you did with your first install so no need to contact Vectorworks again for activation unless it fails for some reason.

0 zoomer Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 here is a good source : https://forum.vectorworks.net/index.php?/articles.html/articles/how-to/uninstallation/ I think newer Versions from VW 2016 on have an Uninstaller that will also wipe out the license on that Machine and should be enough to free the license (?)
