    I have three systems that are activated under my current subscription.  I recently purchased a new laptop that will replace one of these three systems.  my question is...  Is it possible to transfer the activation from the system that will be de-comissioned to the new unit.  Ultimately there will still only be three units with a subscription.  I have not seen anything on the site that shows this is possible.

     

    Thanks for any guidance that can be given.

    This is fairly easy to accomplish. The easiest way is to uninstall One Care from the computer to be de-commissioned, then install One Care on the new computer.

    Thanks...  So will that add an activation back to my subscription?   So when I go to activate it on the new system it shows there is still one valid?

    Yes, you should have no problems activating on the new computer as far as activation counts.
