[RESOLVED] Hardware change, you have to re-enable the P3D license?

Post by Markus1981 »

Hello @all!

I just have a short question.
Do I have to disable my P3d license before a hardware change (motherboard and CPU)? If so, can I do that without deinstalling the P3d v4 client? Or will P3d V4 after the motherboard/CPU exchange start quite normal WITHOUT asking for the license?

I ask rather before I carry out the change, not that I have to re-activate the license through the customer service again…

Thank you in advance for the answer.

Best regards,
Markus

I would say it is wise to deactivate and then reactivate your client license, which is done via the uninstall.

Okay, thank you Ed for the quick answer.
I also think that it is probably better to disable the license for the change.
